Scope it out!
Some of our good friends are having a show you should definitely check out!!
On Friday, June 25th, death will come knocking on the door of Williamsburg's Fresthetic, with the opening of Cake, Chris RWK, Veng, Luna Park, and Becki Fuller's show "Death Warmed Over". Through their paintings and photography, each artist has embarked on an exploration into the many nuances to be found in the meaning of "death" and have incorporated their unique interpretations into their art. For some, death is found in the decay & destruction what was once fresh and new or in the struggles with the demons that plague and sometimes consume us. For others it can be found in cultural practices, such as the festivities of Halloween, the spiritual relationship between the Native American warrior and their prey, or taking a closer look at life in Mexico, a country who's intimacy with death permeates their culture.

The show runs from June 25th - July 30th, with an opening reception on Friday, June 25th from 7-10pm. There will be an art scavenger hunt, live painting in the back yard, and while we may be morbid, we aren't cheap, so the drinks are on us! So, come shake your bones to the musical styling's of our favorite DJ Royce Bannon and have a time so good that it will haunt your memory for years to come!

Stencils ain't so bad
So this was supposed to be a post about block printing till i soon realized i can't focus on carving that shit out for more then 10 minutes. Plus having only a razor blade to carve it with didn't help at all. I'm lucky to still have all my fingers. So instead I'm gonna blab for a minute about stencils.
Well uhhh.....lets see here. Uhmmm.....Stencils are cool. I haven't done them in a long long time but recently i've been cutting a few here and there. I like them, I understand how they work, I just wish i had the power to force myself to do multi-layer ones. I can't work on something that long. Even like a canvas, I sit for like an hour or two and then have to put it down for a day, or a week, or a month. So yeah, this is a 2 layer stencil, nothing too fancy. I got a bunch of vinyl to paint it on so im psyched about that. Hopefully with some taped off this and some spray glued that, it will come out clean and good to go

Power In Numbers
Hello again! Long story short, what ya see above is the first draft flier. For what, for what you might ask? (your not asking if you just read it but im gonna blab about it anyway) Power in Numbers. Sticky Bandits along with the 33, teamed up with OVER KILL Studio to make this happen.
My busy summer just got busier i tell ya. SO Yes!- its open call send in your jazz and it will be up for the show.
I asked El Toro if he had any name ideas for the show and this was the first one he said. For about a week everyday i thought something different. I liked this one first and when it came time to whip up a first draft flier this is what worked best. I feel like the name represents street art stickers very well. Power in numbers, the more you put up the stronger your army gets, the more others get involved, the more the scene grows, the more shows go on, the more its respected. Thanks TORO!
A lot of the things that will be combo'd and on display are not your typical things. What I mean is there arent just gonna be boards on walls - and if there are any boards on the walls, i want to install them around town after the show is done.
So get off your butt and send us a sticker pack!
-Big thanks to BUILDMORE!
