Latest Canvas

I've pretty much exhausted the t-shirt & cd art, at least for now.

I kind of feel like I've gotten a good base, and now I just need to sell myself and my stuff so that I can get a step up or two in Chicago's art scene.

So for now, I'm working with random stuff. Almost a 'back to basics' type deal.
Colored pencils, markers, pencil, & pen on paper, etc.
And, since college, I've had this passion for graffiti. Wildly styled letters, and beautiful pictures done entirely with spray paint. Some work really amazes me.

And while I'd never classify myself as a graffiti artist, I'd like to know some of the secrets.
How do you blend colors into a flawless fade? How do you make realistic pieces using only flat color?
So while I'm learning more about that, I've decided to dive into graffiti in a roundabout way.

I'll be doing some work on this.
But instead of scaling train cars, I'll be using scaled down models.
Progress & other adventures to come soon.
I'll keep you posted.

Be good.
