@DokeTv I don't want this comment to get lost in the sauce. Here's a little bit of insider knowledge from the construction world. Plywood. I noticed you were extending from the road. Most likely for solid ground. Sand is sketchy to work from in a man lift. It gets stuck, sinks, and would possibly tip over. If you or the owner of the lot of the fenced in area were worried about that. 3/4 inch plywood is your solution 1 sheet per wheel is enough surface tension to keep you level. You could literally lay them out from one end of your working area to the other, probably like 10-20 sheets. They're reusable, and it allows you to go cheaper on the lift your using. Instead of a 100 foot actuation boom you can get a 50.

I got all emotional for you hearing about your journey from sleeping in your car and showering there to doing this mural now… you’ve worked hard man!!! You’re amazing you deserve all the success! Big love from London ❤

So sick. I can’t imagine the energy you must have had after meeting him that way. And appreciated the look back at your own story - you have so much to be proud of and I know you’re only going to keep climbing! Much respect.

Looks to me that few are looking closely at what he painted because it’s so finely detailed it looks like a professional billboard. Such good lettering

I think this maybe one of my favorite videos from you, more for the message of overcoming your fears and going for it, and the support of others to achieve your dreams... The Art is fantastic as always! Thanks man for the inspiring words, it hit a note with me today.

I have to say not only is your art amazing but u have such a fantastic storytelling ability and when you do ur voice overs. This combo with the soundtrack u pick really make ur videos so engaging! Congrats on this amazing mural and getting such a high profile client!

that seagull was mean. dope wall, especially the clean letters in the squares make it look 100x more professional…. when you started painting the building at the bottom right corner it was like: duuuuuuude, so goood! really love this one, whole video is fire. ❤

I just binge watched all of your videos (even repeated the ones I had already watched), and I gotta say that I got a little emotional here. I'm so damn proud of you. I can't express how grateful I am to see the beauty that you've put out into this chaotic world. Thank you for being you.

the crazy thing about this is that he's not only making a dope mural but also a great video at the same time.

The way you just freehanded the letters and numbers without measuring anything was impressive! The whole mural is awesome and your channel is very inspiring. Stay gold brother

Your colour game is so on point dude.. I know that colour palette (rust red/blues/teals/oranges) is kind of your thing but the depth rendering it gives is pure butter. Mad skills. Keep on smashing it.

I'm blown away!!! Especially the fact that you FREE-HAND the letters and numbers, WTF??!!! They look like you traced them - so perfect!

I love how the red on the right transitions into the blue then into that gorgeous Pacific blue aquamarine.

So glad you have succeeded in expressing your talent and sharing it with the world! 💗 The synchronicity is proof that the universe is supporting you!

Its absolutely amazing to see you work each mural with such simple tools at a large scale. You are so humble for your success and its great to hear your story on your growth and risks of pursuing your passion. Much love

Much respect .I'm an old skool writer from the late 70's to present and let me tell you , You are one of the few new skool graffiti writers I totally give much respect to . More writers should follow your passion and mindset . This piece is one of my favorites youv'e done . You are blessed with the skills to get it done kiddo. Again much respect. You have earned your blessings and stay humble , you let your work speak for itself. again , RESPECT.

Dude.....I have been following you for years now. You just keep bringing it to the next level. So glad to see you follow your passion and continue to do what you love. If you do what you love, its not work its just another day getting paid doing what makes you happy. All the best as always Kiptoe!

Kiptoe, you are by far one of my favourite artists on KZread. The compositions, concepts, execution - make for great watch. Really like the comic book panels. Keep up the awesome work 🖖🏻✌🏻🤜🏻

I'm a new subscriber and painter myself. I'm not a mural painter. I deal in acrylics and oils on canvas. I am absolutely amazed at your phenomenal talent. How you bring such a huge scale project to life and still keep everything in its proper proportion is such an amazing skill that I know has taken numerous hours and calculations to bring to fruition. Your use of values and color is off the hook! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with the rest of the world. I look forward to viewing your other projects.

the story, the edit, the production, all while getting this job done, truly inspirational. your hustle and dedication is amazing.

He came a long way and it paid off. Very inspiring.

Nice. Max respect for freehand too. No stencils, reference images to look at while painting or even being able to do both sides on the same days. Very cool man. I hope he made good commission for it.

The seagull was your worst critic 😝Little bastard.🕊️ As a billboard painter (in the late 80s) my worst enemy were pigeons. Great work man! Looks awesome!

6:48 Serendipity. When your internal world and the external world line up. This is when you know you are on track. Your perception and choices you make are perfectly in sync. For me, it's when I think of, or read words and concepts at the same time they either get seen or heard by me externally; i.e., I'm watching tv and reading then someone or something on screen will say the same word, or the subject I'm reading will suddenly be paralleled on screen. Happens a lot. More so when I was younger and my soul was riding the crest.

You have made a life choice. You took risks. You have showed resilience under adversities. You spread your personality and positive attitude. And you won. You are a good man, talented and example for many of us!

What an awesome eye and talent. Cant even imagine being able to see it in your mind and eye and then put it on a wall. Amazing.

Gorgeous work. Love how the universe sends back serendipity in the most random ways. 🤙🏾🏄🏽‍♂️

We all face our waves, the difference is some face them willingly, thank you bro for your courageous approach to art

It's so clean and crisp it just looks like a billboard

6:55 Transition sickkk! Amazing work

the endless summer best surf movie ever i watched over 100 times and when summer is coming i watched every week amazing movie R.I.P Bruce Brown.

10:05, that made me cry a bit! Badass! Love hearing how badass people dragged themselves through the trenches all alone and make it to the other side.

All I can say is that HBO would be super delighted to appoint you to do this. More than this Mural, your video is doing more advertisement for them. So pleasing... Some humans are made to be angels like; you do small good thing for them and they will return back with much more.

Love love the little spider at 2:12

I have been painting waves and turtles with oils on canvas and I have to say this was so much fun to watch you create with spray cans, tips, brushes and your finger. Colors are dope. Composition reads well, and the story with the surfer dude was cool. Congratulations!

That is absolutely breath taking. FANTASTIC JOB

Dud what awesomeness! Meeting the surfers is a wild chance. Plus this looks great! Killer talent!

Qué chulada!! Me encanta!! Felicidades por el buen trabajo!!

Love for the beach... World 🌎 Famous Venice Beach Baby!!! Kiptoe always original and fresh. Wonderful expression of your vision sir, thank you. ✌️

KIPTOE is very much underrated!!!

My god. As if it doesn’t take enough talent to paint with spray paint, he’s AMBIDEXTROUS! Wow.

Your free-hand lettering is amazing.

You knocked it out of the park. Again. Thank you Kiptoe. Thank you for sharing your gifts & thoughts with us. Wicked awesome. I look forward to even better creations from you. How about some more collab's with 10 100. And the rest of best.

WHATTA WAVE ‘O’ ENERGY…….!!!!! I’m dazzled……….. THANXXX !!!!!

Energy of this video is giving me so many positive vibes.

It's amazing to see such a gifted artist at work. 👍

This is stunning, wonderful experience though the eyes of a creator. Magnetic artwork.

It is always so satisfying to watch someone who loves their work. The end result is wonderful but the process is the force of life. You've earned the joy your work brings you.

6:55 🔥Transition sickkk! Amazing work🔥🔥

Wow! funny how the stars aligned, that was definitlely destiny!

This mural deserves 1,000,000 likes and the same fee! Insanely well done! And of course in corporate style!

Great work, love the design. It just pops and looks Ultra HD. Love it.

What I admire is the the process and actually seeing the passion from this artist. If you are walking by and you happen to see this mural, yeah of course you would appreciate it, but because we got to see the process, we appreciate it even more.

Fantastic! Beautiful artwork KipToe. So happy that HBO got you involved in a project like that, because so many people will have an opportunity to see that mural, and hopefully reflect on something positive in their lives. Love the art!

Amazing how a great artist with just a few simple strokes expertly and quickly applied can convey a message or feeling. A couple strokes and I'm like, wow what a great sunset without knowing what it is, or the outline of the big eye already conveys resilience and determination.

Wow. It’s a gorgeous ad for what looks like a cool show. Thanks for sharing

I love the feeling of being in the flow, clearly painting is your wave.

WOW... HBO is BIGTIME!! CONGATS!!! YOU DESERVE IT.

You are such a joy to watch paint, fingers spray cans and brush . Such an understanding of waves and light. Love your mural ! ❤

What a synchronicity! Dude recognizes his bil's eyes, then introduces himself as the featured surfer on your actual project! Absolutely amazing. And an amazing mural, as usual

I was in Venice just 2 weeks ago! ... and I saw it in Person! It's fricking awesome!
