Dirty Car Art

D Pos - Have you ever felt the urge to draw on filthy car windows? I bet most of us had experience doodling on layers of dust coating a car window. We all love to put a humorous “wash me!” or even draw a family of stick figures on the window. Well Scott Wade—also known as the “The Da Vinci of Dust” and “The Dirty Car Artist“—is simply taking this act a notch higher. He uses the accumulated dust in the car’s window to create intricate masterpieces. His vast portfolio features several re-creations of some of  the most famous art pieces including the Mona Lisa by Leonardo the Vinci and The Girl with the Pearl Earing by Johann Vermeer. 

Even as a little kid, Scott just couldn’t resist drawing on dusty car windows. Being a son of an amateur cartoonist, Scott was exposed to drawing early in his life and dirty windows are his canvas. He remembers drawing funny faces on random car windows with his bare hands. Until one day—out of curiosity—Scott pulled out a chewed Popsicle stick out of his mouth and started using that as a medium. The result was fantastic; thus the idea to use a real brush was brought up. After continuous experimentation, he discovered his own style and method.  


There are two types of canvases for Scott. First is the natural canvas, wherein the cars are driven for days on a dirt road until the rear window is covered with almost opaque layer of fine dust. Scott prefers this kind of canvas due to its natural and even coating. Second is the artificial one in which Scott has to imitate the texture of the natural canvas with the use of oil, a blower, and a bag of a very fine dirt. This type of canvas usually comes in handy especially on events where access to filthy car windows is very limited.


Scott got to travel around the world to showcase his unique skill for various international events. His works has been featured on different international media including, History Channel, The CBS Early Show, Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, Inside Edition, CMT’s Country Fried Home Videos, Maxin, Car and Driver, The National Enquirer, and Nickelodeon.

Now get your eyes ready and let’s all check out these Astonishing samples of Dirty Car Art!
