Graffiti Weekend »
I had a busy fume filled weekend and thought I’d share the results. On Saturday I painted at the ‘Whitecross street Party’ for the 2nd year running, deciding to decorate the 8 x 8ft space provided with a homage of sorts to Betty Boop, or at least her skull mounted on an ice cream cone (It makes sense to me!)
I was lucky enough to turn up early and find a great spot next to my good friend ‘DEP’. We’ve painted together a few times now and think our styles compliment each other pretty well…I look forward to more collaborations in the future.
Sunday started early with a hired car down to Ashford,Kent alongside JASIK,GFUNK and PUNISH for fellow crew member ATCH’s ‘CREATE’ graffiti jam. 90minutes of Magic FM later we arrived to find a spot worth every 80’s power ballad.
I decided to drop one of my ‘OTAKU’ pieces, bringing 2 sketches with me with a plan to combine elements of both into the piece.
It’s not often I remember to document the process of painting and although this is far from a detailed analysis, here’s my initial outline on the wall…

Here’s one I made earlier…

Thanks to ATCH for securing a great spot and hosting a great jam (not to mention pulling off his best piece in my opinion). Shouts to all in attendance. Looking forward to the next one…
