FINALLY! I managed to get my first exchange outline laid down on a wall I did with my boy Guts..
The Exchange was started in 2005, with six participants from different areas of the United States. The group is currently made up of 35 members from 14 countries worldwide. The participants of The Exchange trade names and personal styles through sketches. This step is repeated until everyone in the group has traded outlines at least once.
The sketches are drawn, scanned, and traded via email. They are then printed out and executed by the receiving artist in their particular city.
The objective is to create an awareness of distinct lettering styles and trends. The goal is for all in the group to be able to become more versatile through attempts at graffiti styles out of their personal comfort zone. The artists in the group may learn new techniques and compositions from the exchange.
wow,thats a different surface..first time here on the exchange!
ReplyDeleteFresh! You went the extra mile!
ReplyDeleteYou nailed it guy. Lookin hype.
ReplyDeleteNICE!! Interesting how you extended it even more than I would have. i tend to sketch really thin and long and compact it when i paint, you went the opposite route and it work as as well. makes me realize the sketch was a little too simple and could have used some extra hooks, connects and all around funk. Also like how you added some halo effect too break the flat vector look i tend to get stuck with. The extra footage on skin is gold !
ReplyDeleteThanks man!
I'll be rockin your sketch pretty soon, i'll drop you a line about that!
very good xcqtion ENSOE really nice.
ReplyDeleteDamn I was staring at Phat's spelling up there for ages trying to work out what xcqtion was! haha, then I realised it's txt language!
ReplyDeleteDude, this came out really dope. Agree, you really nailed the style on the head, I actually think to me, that was the most accurate reproduction of someone else's style so far because if I just saw that in a magazine credited as being by Serval, I wouldn't doubt it... You really channeled his B-Boy energy on this one!
really impressive!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am totally feeling what Askew said in the last comment...
Plus I have really enjoyed your use of colours on this one, The subtle glow in the 3d's are fresh!
