Via Boing Boing comes a Quicktime movie of a the process involved in painting a mammoth four-by-four canvas oil paiting of a stairwell. Gareth Spor’s work is very Hopper-esque but with a clinical, modern twist to it in that the stairwell is all steel and glass, interior nothingness. The video is an amazing time-lapse of the entire process from stretching the canvas and applying a base coat of paint to masking out the the clean lines of paint for the bright and clearness of a modern glass building.
