hi lovers,
here's some street art that myself and KAST painted recently at a local high school in Kamloops, BC. after several years of doing FREE workshops in high schools, it feels good to finally get somewhere. although now, there's plenty of competition whereas there once none before. we started a good thing, and now others are getting on the workshop train. it's crazy. we're trying to show people that street art is vibrant, colourful, a safe means of self-expression, not gang related, not vandalism if done legally and properly.
we did this in about an hour and a half. when we get going we can crush it out quickly.
enjoy,
cb
as you can see, we start with 6 sheets of plywood
at 4 x 8 feet in size.
they were from an art show we had at Arnica Artist Run Centre
we never buffed the wood, we just painted over them
at this time of year, buffing a wall means waiting over an hour
for the paint to dry before you can start painting.
I did two new fun characters and KAST wrote
some fresh new letters.
literally it is an explosion of colour.
Juxtaposed against the bland wall
of the high school, it just leaps out
adding much needed colour and life.
