i used to be a tagger (ho boy), albeit a very bad one, but somehow i dropped off when i moved. lately i’ve been missing the exhilaration of it all, but i don’t want to go back to meaningless tagging. so i figured i might as well get my art chops in gear and do some stenciling instead.
i haven’t stenciled for a very long time. i’m thinking of doing people to improve my shading skills. i don’t have much wall to work with around here, since i have no means of transportation and lots of lovely teachers keeping their eyes out on me, so rather than vandalizing public SLASH private property – the latter of which i would feel AWFUL about, because for serious, that paint is a bitch to get out – i’m just going to be stenciling on cardboard. possibly lame-o, but i’m hoping it’ll turn out amazingly! i already have my cardboard, cardstock, exacto blades etc all set out for me. and a bunch of acrylic paint! unfortunately i forgot to buy spray paint this week, but oh well, i’ll survive, hate of brushes and all.
i’m giving myself 8 days to complete this goal because i have a bad habit of sitting around on my ass instead of actually getting out there and doing art. hopefully the idea of drawing total crap on my own house (and the ensuing clean-up awfulness that’d follow) will spur me into actually doing shit.
