Yo YO yo?







So here we are again back at Graffiti Chic. These are the same pieces as in an earlier post buy now with more layers on top. I was supposed to do a bunch of stencils and graffiti letters. Well. I sorta did. I put on letters. One of these even has a prayer of sorts written on it. It was the words on my mind. I have a lot of stuff on my mind about work, so I just threw that on there. One has several rows of alphabet. And since I am more about flowers that "YO, yo what up" lettering and stuff, I just did it my way. I mean no disrespect. I just don't feel the pressure to conform or copy exactly what someone else does, class or not. I knew I was signing up for a graffiti class, but I just made what I thought I could make into something else later. I hope my teacher will like it anyway. I think a good teacher can teach people how to copy, but a great teacher inspires individuals to take off and do something unique and wonderful. Thanks, Alisa for the inspiration. I'm happy and ready to start sewing on all this canvas, even though that isn't in the class, not yet anyway.
