'''Street painting''' is the activity of rendering artistic designs on pavement such as streets, sidewalks, and town squares with impermanent materials.

*'''Keep''' the most reliable sources about the character's life and history would be primary, which is fair enough. Now whether this character has enough coverage in reliable third party sources is the key point. I think they do, per these two searches [http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%22Neely%20O'Hara&um=1&sa=N&tab=ns] and [http://books.google.com/books?tab=sp&sa=N&q=%22Neely+O%27Hara&um=1&sa=N]. [[User:RMHED|RMHED]] ([[User talk:RMHED|talk]]) 01:51, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' per the searches above, which are sufficient for this. '''[[User:DGG|DGG]]''' ([[User talk:DGG|talk]]) 17:56, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Street painting has been recorded throughout Europe since the [[16th century]]. Street painters in [[Italy]] are called ''madonnari'' (pronounced: mah-doan-are-ee with ''madonnaro'' being the singular form) because they often created pictures representing [[the Madonna]].
:*Can you point out which ones can be used? I don't really see any that provide anything non-trivial to help establish real world context. [[User:TTN|TTN]] ([[User talk:TTN|talk]]) 20:29, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

::*About half way down this article there is quite a bit of discussion [http://www.ejumpcut.org/archive/onlinessays/JC39folder/imitationLife.html], but mainly the character is often referenced in books about Hollywood movies and sometimes in works of fiction as a kind of Hollywood actress archetype. [[User:RMHED|RMHED]] ([[User talk:RMHED|talk]]) 22:47, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Historically, madonnari were itinerant artists who lived a life of travel and freedom. Aware of the festival and holy days (holidays) in each province and town, they traveled to join in the festivities. They created images in public squares and in front of the local church using bits of broken roof tiles, charcoal, and some white [[chalk]]. Passersby would often leave a bit of bread or olive oil for the artist along with an occasional coin. The artists were often commissioned to create votos and ex-votos, and after the festivities or with the first rain, both the painting and the painter would vanish.
:::*So we currently have one reference that amounts to trivial coverage, maybe two if the book below actually focuses on the character rather than the film. Quick mentions in fiction can't really be used besides using one or two as examples to back up the initial point. This need enough coverage to warrant being a separate topic from the main works. Nothing has been shown that it is remotely possible yet. [[User:TTN|TTN]] ([[User talk:TTN|talk]]) 12:06, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' Neely is cited in [[The Fifty Worst Films of All Time]] -- the book is out of print, sadly, but there is a long chapter on "Valley of the Dolls" and the character. [[User:Ecoleetage|Ecoleetage]] ([[User talk:Ecoleetage|talk]]) 01:50, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
For centuries madonnari were folk artists, reproducing simple images with crude materials. [[World War II]] disrupted their itinerant tradition and reduced their numbers. In 1972 the first International Street Painting Competition was held in Grazie di Curtatone, Italy. The purpose of the competition was to record and publicize the work of those considered to be the last practitioners of this traditional art form. The oldest of the painters were already in their 90s. Over the years, the competition has drawn younger painters and larger crowds. The festival remains popular and street painting festivals around the world are modeled on the event. The 1972 festival resulted in national recognition of the validity of the art form by the Superintendent of Culture. This recognition caused a whole new generation of street painters to emerge. Within a decade these artists were using high quality commercial and handmade [[pastels]] to create copies of well known masterpieces.

In 1982 [[Kurt Wenner]] an American artist, began street painting in [[Rome, Italy]] and by 1983 he had developed a new art form known as [[anamorphic]] or [[Three-dimensional space|3-dimensional]] street painting. In 1984 his unique invention was documented by [[National Geographic]] in their award winning [[film]] [["Masterpieces In Chalk"]]. In this same year he won the title of Master Street Painter at the Grazie festival and in 1985 he created the first 3-dimensional street painting in the US at the [[Santa Barbara Museum of Art]].

In 1987, Master Street Painters Kurt Wenner and Manfred Stader introduced the art of street painting to the Old Mission Santa Barbara, California. This was the first of numerous events throughout the United States that are modeled on the Italian festival at [[Grazie di Curtatone]]. Since this early introduction both traditional and 3-dimensional street painting have spread throughout the world. The innovative appeal of 3-dimensional street art has inspired many artists such as [[Julian Beever]] and Gary Palmer.

"A recent development in the street painting art form in the twenty first century is the use of user generated video, blogging, and podcasting of street painting artists at all levels of ability and their fans worldwide. This new technological advance offers opportunity for all street painting, artists, festivals, and fans to allow a window not only to their latest image or festival appearance but a chance to let others know why they street paint and to encourage others – especially the younger generation of street painters to become known and grow in experience. Reaching the public in this way allows the performance aspects of street painting to be shared with many who do not readily have the opportunity to see street painting in person" says [http://www.streetpainting.tv streetpainting.tv] and its blog [http://ispgstreetpainting.typepad.com/ 'Blog Now on streetpainting.tv] which initiated this positive direction for all street painting artists, festivals, and fans beginning in September of 2007. An example of where you can find this new technology at work is on a new online community called the [http://www.streetpaintingsociety.com Street Painting Society].

One of the biggest street painting festivels in the country is the [[Youth in Arts]] [[Italian Street Painting Festival]].
