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.
Yo Honke. I originally had a whole “HONKE TONK MAN Intercontinental Champion” production planed for you but I got a little lazy. Although that’s still not out of the question…
ReplyDeleteHere are 3 outlines for ya.
Outline #1 was the 1st one I did just to get a feel for the letters.
Outline #2 is like the 1st ones more technical cousin. I tried to go for a lean on all the letters. The arc on the whole piece just sorta happened.
Outline #3 is a more soft style. It will prolly work well with a nice fat outline.
Over all I like #3 the best. Looking at your work I’m sure you can knock this one out of the park.
Enjoy
