Chinese Street Artist

 Chinese poetry written on sidewalk This street artisan is writing Chinese poetry and calligraphy on the sidewalk near the river in Changsha.  He is using what appeared to be a mixture of water and cooking oil to create the characters.  Apparently he does this just for the fun of it, as he was not begging or asking for any money.

 

Below, scenes from the park...
