Finally! Some street art! Even decided to give stencils a second chance. I did a warm up run here in Barcelona, Montreal styles (idea, cut out and spray all in the same night) with my trusty companion, Sparky. Turns out it's more important to look out for sketchy night wanderers than the police.
My first roll of Holga photos turned out to be mostly a failure. These are pretty much the only barely usable photos that came out of a 36 exposure roll of self-roll, colour single perforated really old film. Everything was underexposed cuz the film was only 160 ISO and the Holga shoots at a pretty small aperature of 8 or 11. I kind like them but hopefully I'll have better and more results with a higher speed film next round. Holga cameras are a cheap Chinese camera made entirely out of plastic, the lens too. They are famous for having light leaks and doing unexpected things.
Me and Darryl at his studio.
I think this is little Mieke in the greenhouse at Concordia.
Yesterday was a really sunny day so I ran away from studio for an hour or two to paint this little picture in union lane. First time ever doing some real time freehand spraying (the oil-rig). Some kiwi fella named city went into my little window frame and pushed me out into new territory. I had to go over some sexy pirate but I left her face hanging in the sky, because I guess I just have a thing for pirates. I feel like the picture I am trying to paint isn't clear enough without dollar dollar bills flying out of Mr. businessman's briefcase but I didn't have any green paint. Maybe I will go and retroactively add them bills.
We are a collaboration of artists dedicated to street art and all forms of outsider art, but we also like to dabble in other areas like screen printing, photography, video, stop motion and graphic drawing. We have formed this blog to share ideas and inspire creativity.
