finished paintings.

here are the finished paintings. i think im pretty happy with the way most of them turned out. it was interesting to see the way the paint acted on the different surfaces (i.e. plain paper, canvas, cloth, etc.)








i think for the exhibition i will hang them on the wall, perhaps with a short title / description underneath. this last black one with text will be the first image hung to show the title 'corporate signage invades'.

as for the interactive componenet for my project, i have decided (with the help of my classmates) to offer a webpage for people to submit their own images with my stencils laid over them. to avoid sizing issues i will provide pdf, jpeg, and illustrator files of each stencil i have made so that people can size them on their own and submit their paintings to me. more info on the webpage to come in the next few days. in the mantime i will get to work assembling the pages for the book.

trying to keep it to one color (spraypaint) per stencil. will attempt to do multiple colors on the seven-eleven and exxon signs as long as it doesnt get too messy looking. the white areas will have no paint and the original picture will show through.
