ASKEW Paints CECS Sketch

here's the first piece I've painted from the selection of sketches people rocked last week. We were invited out of town to Tauranga to paint and not knowing what to expect, took all the different sketches printed out so I could choose the most fitting to the surface. In the end I went with one of Cecs sketches.

As you can see, it pissed down with rain the whole time and I was painting on a corrugated iron wall. This made for an extremely pleasant painting experience, especially the waterfall like stream of water gushing down the left side of the A.

I like how the piece came out although I don't know if I nailed it exactly the way it was intended. For example, the lean on the A isn't gangster enough, the cross of the K sits a little high and I really struggle with such bold classic arrows. I found this piece really educational. I think Cecs draws on such a catalogue of classic NYC styles, the kind that look really simple but the subtleties are what really make them actually tough to paint!

Here's a progress video and the finished shot.

CAKES Paints ASKEW Sketch

Very interesting experience to paint my own name after sketch of somebody else. I really like the connections between the letters. I did some little detail differences in S for example. Thanx Askew!

Yo Host, here are 4 sketches for you. The top one is my rendition of a no-negative style, with some extra slices and layers. I did a Shots for you as well, trying to space out the letters and have the extensions be the only elements connecting them. Have fun, be one with the can, spray warrior.

Askew by Cecster

I tried to do as many different styles as possible, including some solid black letters because I know you've been experimenting with those lately. It'll be interesting to see your take on any of these really. Can't wait to see the results.
