Now Open Sundays , by LEVI C on Dec 16, 2008 14:26:38 GMT 1, 
Here's another idea i'm working on. This is a test spray, so still loads to do.
Well happy with it so far, need to sort the spire, add a cross, some gravetones and grass in front. Thought i'd add a line of trolleys (with red handles) and a kids ride on thing, I also applied to much paint to the Tesco sign (would blend in alot better with a light layer) so will sort next time, but I rek i've done enough to get the idea across.
It's 95cm x 75cm
Appreciate any opinions and comments!
Thanks

Now Open Sundays , by LEVI C on Dec 16, 2008 15:36:22 GMT 1, You're right Hero......OUCH....ARRRRGGGHHHHHHH.....SHIT SHIT! WHO THE F*CK DID THAT?? I searched and searched to see if anyone had done this Tesco spin and found nothing. I can assure that I have never seen this piece. I am deciding now whether it is different enough to keep (mine being a rural church, so the whole point being that they pop up everywhere, only 3% of Brits go to church (or something) and supermarkets have been dubbed "the new churches" I certainly wouldn't have chosen Parliment either, so maybe my message is slightly different. Different enough though, im not sure.
I'd appreciate others thoughts on that though.
And thanks for the comments!

Now Open Sundays , by LEVI C on Dec 16, 2008 16:15:32 GMT 1, I've gotta say thanks for this H and thanks for telling me who it was ;D It is important for me to know I had no idea this existed and I'm glad now I have found out it's not a stencil. (not meaning to be cocky at all) but I think my message is different and a bit stronger. So with the addition of the trolleys, possible cash machine etc I may be ok. Still, not as chuffed as I was though!
Cheers

Now Open Sundays , by UpFest on Dec 16, 2008 20:55:04 GMT 1, How about framing the sign so it appears attached to the church(ah sod it looks fine as it is)? Also what about a Vicar pushing a trolly throught the doors? Just a few suggestions, like the cut and style of the church and know as always the finish will be great ;D

Now Open Sundays , by LEVI C on Dec 17, 2008 10:50:11 GMT 1, thanks for the comments peeps, after sleeping on it I've decided to run with it. Just cutting the cash machine & grave strones etc now. Denmeadmichelle - thanks for your cash machine idea. It's all about ideas for me and I love it when feedback is almost 'brainstorming', it shows me that people understand how fun and important that element of this art form is. That is a spot on addition. I am making enquiries about doing a small print run in order to make my stuff more accessible. Although original editions have been selling at 200-300 each they have been over the budget of many enquiries and of course, I want my work to go to anyone that likes it. So will keep posted on that.
Denmeadmichelle, number 1 is yours for free when I sort the prints, if I don't you can have an orignal 
Logical - Cheers mate!

Now Open Sundays , by LEVI C on Dec 23, 2008 10:38:39 GMT 1, thanks for comments again peeps!
Ok, i was rushing to get this one finished before comming out to Spain yesterday and now I have no spraypaint or stencils for 8 days  although the sun is out and i'm sat next to my parents pool typing this so it's not all bad! ;D Still not finished - grass on left and the trolleys/cash machine need more work. But i'm happy with the progress.
Any comments, pos or neg are much appreciated!

Hero- hey I shop at Tesco's and I don't think i'm a chav, although one of my Christmas jumpers is pretty close to the line ;D

As for using Tesco's image, I think they are fair game for all artists, much prefer yours to the Twinkle one ,the image sits much better. Check out t.wat's corporate gangsters print, another great take on the Tesco's brand. Hope that helps. Good luck

Now Open Sundays , by LEVI C on Jan 13, 2009 22:39:32 GMT 1, Cheers for your comment neale, i know what you mean but i think the cashpoint does add something even if very little so gonna leave it in. Might re-cut a better one for the finished edition. Been very busy, but finally got this test spray as finished as its going to be. Quite happy with it, will probably put in next show.
Thanks to all, Denmeadmichelle - you can have this test spray, wait a couple of weeks because i need it as a guide for the next one.
Cheers
