8. Spray Painted Stencils

Spray painting is really fun! I finally bought some spray paint and used large sheets of paper to put my stencils on. I did the stencils letter by letter without a composition in mind because I wanted to see what would happen if I did it randomly like this. I then cut out the large sheets of paper into the 180mm x 180mm squares - I looked for an interesting part of the sheet so this was chosen by me and not at random.  I like the messy layered look and the texture created (by not being able to control the can well). I think it's great to experiment with different medias to see what different possibilities appear - it's really refreshing and I'm learning a lot.

















 The above is my favorite composition. Maybe the C should have been placed lower down but I think it still works with the flowing counter shape arrow coming down from the top left and then turning up towards the top right.







I like the composition above because of the arrow counter shape directing the eye from the 'c' on the left to the top Right of the 'r'.



I like the composition above. The eye is lead diagonally from the top left hand corner to the bottom right.



I liked this composition so much I made it again but neater.
