Doing my best to look cool outside Dozer’s Warehouse.
Who’s ready to explore more of Dozer’s Warehouse? I know I am! If you read Part One then you know I’m talking about enjoying the 103 pieces of street art gracing the walls of a soon-to-be-torn-down building here in Seattle. And by walls, I also mean floors, doors, ceilings…you get the idea!
They say that eyes are the windows to the soul, so how about we dive in through a few faces?
This piece by Jeremy Gregory reminds me of the famed Brazilian painting siblings Os Gemeos.
Gregory is actually more known for his puppets than his street art. That’s not a sentence you get to write every day!
Zaeos brings a friendly face to the party.
One of Dozer’s pieces – he does quite a variety, but seems to gravitate towards black and white.
Tehya Sullivan‘s wonderfully dark style.
Smile everybody, it’s not all dark imagery!
Graffiti was also a big part of this show. I posted one of Jaber’s pieces last time; he was most definitely not flying solo:
Strong tattoo artists like Jake Good here certainly have style!
You can see how densely packed with art the walls were! Here you’ll find pieces by Style, Liv and Keger among others.
Some designs mixed murals WITH the graffiti. And notice how Desmond Hansen’s piece goes up onto the ceiling? The ceilings were REALLY low on the 2nd floor making this easier.
This was a really neat piece – not exactly graffiti, but along those lines. The design travelled around the pillar and spiralled along the floor.
This close-up made me think of all the outdoor street art in London – just had that vibe about it. Love it!
Krsa and Carlos Aguilar make up the duo They Drift. Who wouldn’t like to live in a house like this one?
You could be forgiven for thinking you were in a fanciful zoo rather than an art exhibit…

It’s important to make sure your reading glasses match, don’t you think?
Henry’s L’il Popper keeps watch on some of the aerosol cans used throughout the warehouse.
Speaking of aerosol cans…
Ok, there were SO many more amazing pieces, but I don’t want to overwhelm everybody. Having said that, I do have to add juuuust a couple more. Sorry, I can’t resist.
How could I not include this? I couldn’t, just couldn’t. Thanks, Henry.
Truly a magical experience. Hoping Seattle does more and more happenings like this one.

Wonderful! Maybe this will encourage Seattle to allow more street art. And, hey, who was that so cool dude in the first photo?
I have to say, Seattle has been getting more and more street art every time I look, particularly down in the SODO and Georgetown areas. You won’t find anything downtown, but the surrounding neighborhoods are slowly filling up with color! And I’m happy to pose next to any piece that wants me to. Hah!
Fascinating and fun to look at.You’ve opened my eyes to many forms of art I had not thought about, Thanks.
Love to you both

Thanks, Henrietta! I so enjoy getting to relive the art by creating these blogs. We’ll do our best to keep them coming!
Love to you, too,
Aaron
Yep. Loved it.
I’m so glad you noticed Dozer’s Warehouse and sent along the notice. We’d never have come across it without you, and our artistic eyes would be poorer for it! Thank you!!!
