Finally Lost My Cherry..., by ricobenfico on Mar 28, 2010 21:43:02 GMT 1, Having been into this scene for a number of years and appreciating particular artists, general skills and talent as well as specific prints, walls, canvases, shows, randon street pieces I just wanted to cut a stencil and spray a can. So I gave it a go a wee while back. Don't be too critical, here was my first piece.... 
Vinyl:
then on canvas

Thanks Adam, quite embarassed! You really should give it a go. It's fantastic doing it!
Whatever people think about it, it's acheived more than I thought in the first place (of me liking it) if it's given you a bit more inspiration to give it a go. You've got a fortnight to let us see what you produce!

Finally Lost My Cherry..., by ricobenfico on Mar 29, 2010 19:23:59 GMT 1, Thanks schlomo, much appreciated! You are right, it can be quite comsuming just wanting to create stencils, thinking of what to do next etc. Problem for me is where to do. Don't have a space to leave all the materials out. Have to pack everything up after each session. Bit of a grind! But I love it!
And yeah, the more different surfaces, the better!

So Adamk and Chambers, how's the cutting going?!?

Finally Lost My Cherry..., by chambres on Apr 24, 2010 0:31:45 GMT 1, Hey Rico - I haven't forgotten my promise! I've been working on a couple of pieces and i've got a test shot of one (a REAL rough spray) but I'm not sure how to post the picture?? Help!! I haven't had as much time as I'd like to get it finished but I've got the stencils cut and just need to make the time to get it done properly...I might have bitten off a bit more than I can chew with second one (5 layers) but I'm hoping it will work out ok...
No denying it is a hell of a lot of fun!! Will hopefully have the finished products up soon!

Congrats on your first export mate, thats awesome!

I've been working away behind the scenes on something new too but it's a few weeks away. I like trying different styles, some I like doing others I REALLY like doing. Not much feedback on the 2nd piece so I'm thinking not too much love for that? Any suggestions/feedback welcome.

'Pressure' is a comment on today's society and the push, desire, need and ultimately pressure to lead a particular lifestyle. This lifestyle and the success of you as a person measured by labels, brands, luxury goods in a bid to acheive the ultimate possession, in this case, The Girl. This piece is a statement to say No to that way of living. Part of a continuing theme....

I've been thinking about doing the same thing for a while now. You've just inspired me to give it a go.
