UP THERE - A MUST WATCH DOCUMENTARY

UP THERE from Jon on Vimeo.

I was reading this article on the studiobotes blog recently and came across this line:

"In an age where everything revolves around digital and being instant, it’s refreshing to see someone who has mastered their craft, taking time and pride in using their hands."

It reminded me of the video above. UpThere is a documentary featuring the work of the dying trade of large-scale hand painted advertising and the people trying to keep it alive. There's something in me that swells with a sense of pride for these guys. It must be so rewarding to see your work at that scale and have thousands of people viewing it, yet knowing that it was all done by hand must be even more rewarding.
