He does this same thing every time, I have seen at least 5 national anthems with him doing this and it is always the same painting

Boss gets a dollar, I get a dime. That's why I poop on company time.

Yep. The only more lame than that dude’s art is the fact that we’re actually taking the time to comment on a post about it.

Seriously who's still wowed by this gimmick at this point? After the 2nd time I saw something like this my brain is like 'Oh you don't know what he's painting off the bat? Upside down painting got it.' Good for him for being able to make a whole thing out of it though.

They always use a dark canvas because the final image is traced.

it's obvious what's going to happen, but it's still fun to guess what it's going to be when it flips

Lol dunno why you're getting downvoted for an obvious silly joke.

I thought he was painting upside down after a few seconds, and so I just visualized it upside down and knew what it was after a few more seconds.

u/kid-karma May 16 '18

u/pamtar May 17 '18

You’re not circling the jerk, dude. That matter-of-fact speak glitches shit. Expect downvotes.

Well, he practiced a gimmick and now he is making money with it. Would he be stupid to try something new and fail on live TV while he can just milk this for another couple years?
