Replete with a new piece, by Replete on Jul 16, 2008 19:46:10 GMT 1, Just finished this an hour ago in Leeds.
It's entitled Caught Between The Luminance Of A Lamp And The La and is based on this canvas of the same name:
www.edgeart.co.uk/product/caught_between_the_luminance_of_a_lamp_and_the_la/
Hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I enjoyed painting it ;D

Replete with a new piece, by Replete on Jul 16, 2008 21:39:05 GMT 1, Cheers guys glad yer liking it. I really had an epic struggle painting it as it's just so complex a piece to get your head round painting it in spraypaint on a large scale. Just look at the sketch and that was the easy part!
I kept adding and changing things all the time thus complicating the process all the time. Plus the british summer weather of gusting winds and intermittent rain didnt help matters much.

Replete with a new piece, by Replete on Jul 17, 2008 15:41:21 GMT 1, Nice to see that it's been appreciated on here as it was quite an undertaking to paint it as in answer to silky and harveyn question it took around 24 hours spread over 3 days but some of that time was taken up by me changing my mind on colour combinations and trying out new experimental techniques I hadn't used before.
Plus I spent hours just chatting with passers by including local residents, police, dealers, junkies, students, school kids, youth gang members, local business owners, van drivers, council workers, office workers, other graf writers and some of my friends who came to visit me.
Now this ties in with what Banksee asked and in answer to that I painted it at my own expense for myself in my own time rather than as a paid commission. There's nothing I'd rather do in life than paint graffiti outside as there's nothing that comes close to the satisfaction I get from painting a piece or production and standing back at the end and know all the effort was worth it.
I paint canvases and commissions to fund my graffiti and I do love painting the canvases but nothing beats being outdoors with a can in your hand and a bag full of paint to play with. And if you've got your friends and other graf writers around you to paint a production together that's one of the best things on this planet to me.
Also the universal positive feedback from all the passers by who come and talk to me whilst I'm painting is another big motivator in what I do.
So if you ever happen across me whilst I'm throwing paint around come and say hi:1

Your passion for what you do is very evident in the end product. But why in god's name do you live in a city where it rains 300+ days in the year? ;D

Forget those Northern backwaters I say. Move down South, convert yourself and leave that grim wasteland to the rest of the monkeys! The world would be a more colourful and richer place for it, not to mention your work would be on display in a far more civilised environment of course!
(I'll just place my neck on that guillotine over there shall I? And about that commission....)

Replete with a new piece, by Replete on Jul 17, 2008 21:18:38 GMT 1, We northern monkeys are a happier and warmer breed than our southern counterparts.
We have simple pleasures for simple folk like bus baiting or git surfing.
Actually I want to live in Holland or the much underated Belgium as they have some of the best graf scenes going.
Strange but true,
