I havn't been to Montreal in a few years, I wonder if Zilong is still active in the area? I love his work...

EvilGentleman: 1st Apr 2006 - 17:16 GMT

I dunno, I can keep an eye out for it. I'm still an amateur at figuring out graf, so maybe if you tell me a bit about how his style usually looks, I will spot it better

Peter: 1st Apr 2006 - 20:32 GMT

montreal graf, as a whole, is consdiered top notch. id love to see more!

spygirl_t: 2nd Apr 2006 - 00:16 GMT

Zilong uses, what he can find, more than just spraypaint: marker, paint brushes... it's simply awesome. He does sign everything, so if he's still active, you'll see the name too.
I'll do my best to go through my archives.. though I'll have to scan some stuff in. He was really big about 10 years ago, maybe more. As an art student, I was facinated and amazed at the quality of his drawings.

Here are a few of Zilong grafs.

Hmmm, interesting. I see a definite Japanese influence in his work. Thanks. I'll keep my eyes peeled for any of his stuff.

Tamara: 4th Apr 2006 - 14:59 GMT

That would be great! If you do find any please post them! I'd really like to see the evolution in his work.

EvilGentleman: 24th Apr 2006 - 15:19 GMT

A quick update, Tamara. No Zilong grafs spotted as of yet, but I am still looking.

Tamara: 24th Apr 2006 - 15:35 GMT

Montreal has so many good artists that sometimes grafs get lost in a big mess of graf fun.

Thanks for the update Evil ~ I guess it's been so long that I can't really expect that new tags would be up. I love the creativity, expression and freedom of grafs. Must be a great feeling... too bad I lost all my drawing abilities years ago.

EvilGentleman: 3rd Aug 2006 - 00:34 GMT

Tamara, I just realized that it would be a heck of a lot easier for me to find stuff by Zilong if you would tell me what area the shots you posted here came from. Then I would have a certain area to narrow my searches into.

EvilGentleman: 3rd Aug 2006 - 00:36 GMT

Hmmm, looking closer, it seems the artist's name is Zilon with a © after it. What do you think?
