I won't be going for this myself, I think Roam Couch is an incredible artist and his stencil work is something else but I'll stick with my Rainbow Inc prints for now.

Roamcouch ๐ฏ๐ต Ryo Ogawa โข Ukiyo-e painter โข Street Art, by met on Apr 1, 2016 2:16:30 GMT 1, We're really excited to be working with Roamcouch again! This Friday April 1st at Arcadium Gallery will be the release of "When You Wish Upon A Star - Venice" at 12 noon EST 22 Color Screen Print
36 x 24 inches
Edition of 100
Roamcouch is a curious artist.
Technically, he's impressively skilled and would give comparable stencil talents like Logan Hicks a run for their money. But in terms of subject matter and tone, his art has all the sentimental schmaltz and saccharine tweeness of Mr Brainwash.
It's this apparent contradiction in Roamcouch's work that I find intriguingly tragic.

You could knock his originality for often sticking with his city theme, but he's talented and produces something of substance not just whatever is popular and will sell. I'm not sure if it was on here or elsewhere but I once read he has health issues that prohibit him from travel and his works of other cities are how he experiences the world, which if accurate is pretty awesome and puts the repetition in some context. But even if not for that, compare him to whatson or chevier maybe but I can't see any similarity to brainwash.

Never tried to put it into words myself, but this comes really close to my feelings towards his work as well. That contradiction in his work has resulted in me often coming close to pull the trigger, yet to this date, I still have passed each and every single time.. Maybe one day..

This guy has some sick skills and deserves a lot more credit than a lot of the so called 'artists' heavily promoted here.

I like this image like the rest of you. Can't get over the fact this look a little hallmark for me though (just like his other works). Agree he got great skills - if only he uses it on some other subject matters.

Undeniably talented, great skills and "sweet" image - but your comment re "Hallmark" rings true to me.

His career has been a bit of a slow burn with his starry starry night images. I can see why people like his image but it's not for me and don't think it's โintriguingly tragic" whatever that means. Care to enlighten us professor MET.

Roamcouch ๐ฏ๐ต Ryo Ogawa โข Ukiyo-e painter โข Street Art, by pressman on Apr 7, 2016 10:03:20 GMT 1, I think I get met's point - 'he's very skillful but his subject matter is guff'. Whilst I think 'tragic' is a little overstated, I do agree it would be nice to see him apply his skills to produce something slightly edgier.
That said, I don't believe all art needs to be thought provoking. Sometimes, things can simply look nice. This isn't my cup of tea but its wall friendly and I can see why it would appeal.

That said I've never seen anyone else use Police Academy as subject matter!
