Greetings my brodhas!!!!

This piece is painted in my secret truck spot in Queens, NY. I trooped it out there driving my bike so the amount of paint I was able to bring was at a minimum. I noticed SWK often uses bold bright colors in his pieces, so that’s what I decided to go for.
I threw the sketch up keeping it almost exact to the sketch that Swk provided for me. I then got in there and started a new layer of sketch tweaking it here and there to add a little of myself to the letters. The letters were fun and easy to play with and I had a good time putting down the bright colors, when all was said and done I threw up the Exchange logo and called it a day within a couple of hours.
Thanks for the cool sketches SWK.
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.
