What size is the canvas?
Where did you pick it up?

First Stencil Attempt, by Dellboyy on Feb 24, 2008 18:48:49 GMT 1, Cheers! I got the canvas from www.artdiscount.co.uk and it was the Winsor & Newton Deep Edge Stretched Canvas 30 x 30 cm, quite cheap and they look pretty good quality to me! They come in all sorts of sizes too!
If you have any other questions just let me know, but of course i'm quite a novice at this myself!

First Stencil Attempt, by lastpost on Feb 25, 2008 15:43:33 GMT 1, Good work mate, I like it!
I am going down the same route as you, doing my own as i'd prefer to spend my spare ยฃ100k on other stuff ;-)
Here is one I have done...first attempt. The only brown I had.
I have learnt a lot though!

I think patience is the key

First Stencil Attempt, by Dellboyy on Feb 25, 2008 19:29:37 GMT 1, I was half thinking about trying one of the rats myself, one thing at a time though! I'd love to see how yours turned out if you've got pics! And completely agree about patience, well that and a decent knife!

First Stencil Attempt, by Ron Goldsurfer on Apr 8, 2008 23:59:58 GMT 1, Bob Marley, not for me BUT I really like the second one, thatยดs really good, really fuckin good! :-) Itยดs really hard to take the stare but you have really made something that trigger the interest to look once more or just keep staring and wonder...

First Stencil Attempt, by Dellboyy on Apr 9, 2008 16:44:50 GMT 1, Thanks for the nice comments! I'm a bit of a Bob fan, so i'll prob be doing a bigger canvas version of this one for meself.
I love the image of the second face, but the stencil is far from being right yet. I need to do some more photoshop tweaking i think! Here's another version i did with the same stencil:

First Stencil Attempt, by bankruptcreative on Apr 23, 2008 14:12:32 GMT 1, Dellboyy, definitely keep doing your own designs.
Obviously you have good stencil cutting skills because that Bob Marley one looks both accurate and detailed!
I think you will find you can sell some, and don't worry if it doesn't look right if you like the result, the one above looks good partially because of its loose nature in my opinion.

personally I think they look really amateurish and if I were you I'd give it up now and leave it to the competent artists - wouldn't dream of having your 'fake' canvas on my wall
i guess next you're gonna be asking Silky for a Red Star??

First Stencil Attempt, by sparkledusted on May 19, 2008 12:16:13 GMT 1, i like the 2-tone girl portrait stencils a lot. that's good work...captivating. like the bob marley also...looks detailed and time-intensive. if you read this, how long did it take you to cut those stencils? keep on keepin on.
