The Capped Deer Returns

In honour of the broken team efterblivet. The cape isn't as majestic as the first one but at least it's there.

Tidal Failure

Upon our reunion with ''el holy'' and consequent invasion of his apartment in Vancouver we attempted our first efterblivet/el holy collaboration piece...and failed miserably with wet feet. The idea was to work with tag graffiti by blocking some of it out into a simple shape. It ended up being a long and complicated process with multiple nights, and ultimate failure due to improper planning. The first day we scouted out a spot on the Vancouver waterfront, we picked a spot that an artist named Steep had graffitied. We hypothesize that he is a 14 year old boy with a shakey hand and low self confidence. The first night we walked around with a huge 10 gallon bucket of house paint and whited out the wall. The second night we painted with black acrylic some details and tried blocking out the graffiti into the cockroach shadow we had in mind, but had to abort mission when the tide rose so high that the paint was getting washed away as fast as we were putting it on.

White out.

Poor little Steep's reaction to us whiting out his work.
"Toy, toy...Why me...F You...Asshole!'' - Steep

Advanced tide avoidence paiting techniques.

The mural was abandoned because efterblivet was leaving town and el holy didn't have the heart to finish it alone. No ''final'' picture was taken.

Caution: Caped Deer

On April 31st a dream three years in the making was finally realized upon the reunion of efterblivet, on an epic road trip, on the way to tree planting camp, in the infamous converted plymouth van. It can be seen somewhere between Vancouver and 70 Mile House, BC, right after a tunnel.


Stay tuned for the video and improved versions on your local remote highways to nowhere.

Pritty Dyana

This sweet shit mobile belongs to my roomate at my first Buenos Aires apartment. He had it parked out side the apartment for over a year without moving it. It does not funcion in the loosest definition of the word unless pushing and rolling counts. In the last month people started complaining so he has been rolling it from spot to spot around the block. It is unclear what his intentions are for this metalic wonder. The sign on the window says ''This car has owner'' and then the address.This is what me and my stenciling friend, Robert, did to it.


It was my last night in Buenos Aires so I didn't have time to take pictures of it during the day :( But we did almost get caught by the cops once again, on my watch obviously. They did a stop and stare at us with the second officer asleep open mouthed in the front passenger seat, and then slowly drove away. Thank god for pretending to be waiting for the bus and not going to jail on my last night and not getting my camera stolen.
