I knew it!
They put me in a straitjacket and locked me up when I said I saw these things!
Hope they’ll let me out now…..
Love the creativity ❤️
Ha!
If the shadows that you saw moved, you’re in the right place.
LOL Best Comment Ever !!!!
Hahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ;)
aome are really lazy and shitty.
Let’s see you do better
I’m guessing your looking in a mirror……!
Your lack of spell check was really lazy and shitty; so was your comment.
Sort of like your spellcheck.
you are an ass
artists always like to shit on other artists
Why do you need to be a d***.
Who in your life screwed you up.
Your envy is showing!
Cant wait to see your work go viral.
People like you need to just shut yourself in somewhere and let the rest of us forget you exist.
Somebody is jealous!!! 😂🤣😅
All good artists are lazy
That’s Crap!!
So sad a teacher wasted their time teaching you to type.
You should just troll somewhere else you art deficient moron. These are whimsical and cool and well done and you sound like a big fat bunch of sour grapes…
Your just mad you did not think of it. Move on
speak from experience?
The train is awesome!
Super cool!!!!
Great idea. Catches your eye!!!!
Too many of the shadows look like demons. Some are cute, like the flowers, but why is it that so many artists tend toward darkness? Whatever happened to beauty and wholesomeness? Why not create expressions of our faith in and hope for our future instead?
Lmao .. You are meant to face the demons and not be afraid of them. Can’t have the good without the bad …
I don’t see anything demonic or dark. The mailbox is laughing, the dog is barking, dragons breathe fire, the rest of the are playing. It all seems rather joyous to me. It’s all in your perspective.
The only darkness I saw was the way your mind sees innocent shadows.
I didn’t see demons. I saw strange shadow beings having fun.
I saw make believe fire breathing dragons looking for a princess to protect.
I think it’s all all in your personal perspective.
By too many, do you mean 2 of them ?
Like!
Because it is the condition of the artist to explore the depths of emotions which to most people are too repulsive or terrifying. Emotions are not just black and white, and artists of all kinds are meant to find the darkness within the light and the light within the darkness.
Because the artist wasn’t making a religious statement that’s why…
Because it’s ART. If you want your expressions painted learn how and do it yourself
Maybe the demons are his faith, why be judgmental.
You even try to go out there and do that ..it will look like a 2 yr old did it. Just shut up & enjoy his talent or move on..The green eyed monster needs to go !!! Lol
Artists dark? No. Look at gargoyles all over churches. People have hope when they vote for compassion. Put your hope where your vote is.
Yes ❤ I love gargoyles
Whatever happened to beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I didn’t think it was dark at all maybe it’s a shadow so it has no color. I think it was creative and don’t be a hater cause you didn’t think of it.
I wish I could see this in every city, everywhere.
I was thinking the same exact thing! How fun would that be for kids especially? And the kids in all of us!
Excellent…. Marin would offer a nice canvas. And parts of SF. (Clean parts)
Why aren’t the areas in SF clean? Is the real question.
Love this… Bridgeport, CT …. this would look good on you!!
That’s pretty cool! I’d like to see more things like this done across the U.S. Give people a smile as they walk by.
Love the creatively. Keep up the good work.
I love it, I think it’s cool and it gives you something to think about. I’d love to see it in other places as well.
Very creative 👌 love it !
Is this Redwood City, CA, next door to my hometown Menlo Park? So many changes, it must be but I don’t recognize it! Great pics!
Redwood City where?
I like it! I think it’s a really cute idea. Creativity is what you make of it. Thanks for bringing a little levity to what is prolly an otherwise monotonous walk thru town!
Bad idea. Next there’ll be non-union artists painting all over things. No control, lose of integrity follows. Oh the humanity!
OH MY GOD, SHUT UUUUUPPPPPP!
WTF are you on about?
Sarcasm I do believe
You’re right. I saw a regular guy painting a wall totally white. Insanity !
Moron..
Love it. What a creative idea!
Love this… We need this done around Atascocita and Humble, Texas!
I love these so much I can hardly bear it!
Very creative! Where are the other shadows though?
if you take pics on a cloudy overcast day there are no shadows.
Are you asking what city (they’re all in Redwood City) or saying you can’t see the other ones ? I love when cities try to find creative ways to promote themselves.
They’re hiding. Try shining a flashlight & you might find some
Fantastic! We need more of this imagination. Not all art appeals to everyone. That’s why it’s great. ♥
Enjoyed the art and effort to get a reaction. Well done and you are welcome to come to Maryville, MO .
Great, great idea. Great work!
I would love to see them in person. 🖤🖤🖤
Where is Redwood City?
Right near da beach !
Somebody is going to have a really bad drug trip
Or a regular walk down the street while sober.
They are whimsical.
Well, I mostly see robot versions of animals, and pretty friendly ones as that. Demons, where?
I think some people just see demons everywhere! Instead of just trying to enjoy life and take the whimsy when it comes. I just feel pity for that person!
These are awesome! Love them all. How incredibly creative!
I truly think that they are fantastic, anyone who can express through art should never be put down but praised if someone is looking at it as bad then maybe they should look inward because everyone sees it and determines their own meaning try to look on the fun and neat side not the dark , great job to all the artists who did these wonderful expressions
Yes :)
Where is Redwood city?
Redwood City is in San Mateo County which is on what is known as ‘The Peninsula’… the long finger-ish shaped isthmus that generously provides the 49 square miles San Franciscans call ‘The City’. The Peninsula is also the separator that creates the Southern portion of the San Francisco Bay… Redwood City can be found if you are patient and pay attention – otherwise you may find yourself distracted and before you know it you’ve become obsessed with a new destination to never arrive at! 😶… wait, WHAT ⁉️
Very cool!
So….Where is Redwood City???
Love it!

I thought it would explain how it got that effect? At leasr tell what the shadow bounces off of? But I guess that’s giving away the artistry! I’m just curious to know lol. Otherwise was creatively good!
I love it it definitely adds character to your city great job ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That’s odd, I don’t remember taking any acid this morning..
I posted one comment (besides this). It said, “you’re posting comments to quickly. Slow down.” H O W… I S… T H I S….
Who thinks shadows have no color?
These shadow paintings are lighthearted and good for a smile or a laugh. How clever of this artist. Thank you to him and others like him who share their talent to make someone smile or laugh; after all laughter is the best medicine. It is like sunshine. I am again surprised at so many hurtful comments. With all the horrible things in the world right now, can’t someone just express themselves without being tore down or criticized? This is meant for fun. If it’s not your cup of tea, keep scrolling or don’t scroll at all. Comments like that are destructive to both sides: the person their words attack and themselves. Those kinds of comments are not encouraging, but disrespectful, and discouraging,tearing down. They also make the person who shares them look bad and unintelligent. I will guess they are very intelligent. I wish they used their intellect to show that. We were taught citizenship in school and how to help, and look after our neighbors. What happened to that teaching and the learning of that truth. The only way this monster of cruelty can be stopped is to not feed it. Think about what is good and be kind. Thank you to all who shared something uplifting and kind. You words are like honey.
Love this.very talented, great imagination
Wish we could see more in small towns.
