I'm painting a mural at an animal shelter. It is a corridor, nine metres long. They first showed me the space on october 16, I didnt expect such a huge wall. I sketched something on it right away and started painting the wall 6 days later (had to sand the wall a bit and put down primer). Now after 8 more days I have the full colour background, sketched the details in with chalk and am going in with the details, but it will take a while. It is a birds eye view of the river basin with the shelter

Traditional street art is usually freehand, but some special techniques are used to give this art a very special effect.
- Mosaic tiling– Mosaic tiling I the part of the street art where several tiles are assembled to make the image or convey the message. Instead of tiles, the artists have been using small pieces of colored glasses, stones, and other materials.
- Murals– Murals are the artwork that is directly painted or drawn on the wall or ceiling and then painted with lush and bright colors to

We are finishing up on a <a href="/aguycalledvictor.com/images/space.jpg">wall </a>that runs along the back of my landlord's property in Encinitas, and we were curious to see if there'd be any interest amongst folks to come put something up. We're not looking for an ocean mural with suns and dolphins, but rather some cool graffiti/art. There is one side that faces the freeway and would be visible to cars driving by, but also the side that faces our homes. Probably a stretch, but I

Hello! I’ve been super passionate about street art for years now. I made an account on IG that documents all of my street art gem finds, from all over the country and world. If you’re into street art you should check it out! The account is @street_auras on IG ?

Hey I’m relatively new to the scene but I’m hoping to make things more interesting in my area. Anybody know any good spots in Hampton Roads, VA? Mostly worked with paste ups just now getting into painting.

So I’m doing an essay on street art and after what I’ve gathered, there are three types of graffiti:
1) tags(basic writing of a name/word usually with a pen)
2) throw up/flow(the name/word is colorful this time, the letters usually look puffy or like bubbles)
3) fresco(I found that it’s when the word becomes the masterpiece and they add tons of detail and elements to it so it’s not just a simple word/name anymore)
Is this correct? Please if it’s not(even in the slightest way), help me :)

Wanting to adapt and build a new art style, I only just noticed that tattoo art style and graffiti kinda share some styles and main difference is of course the medium that the art is drawn on.
Just wanna hear from other people what differences you see between tattoo and graffiti in general.
and if there's a certain style name that can work for both mediums?

So basically I’m doing my school project on street art in Berlin. And these past few days I started writing about the different techniques: stencil art, graffiti, etc.
But I’m confused. When it comes tu murals, I see a lot of artworks that look like they’ve been made without any special techniques. Just with the spray can and without stencils for example. What would that be called? Is it also a different technique?
Please help me out I’ve asked all my art teachers and they don’t have a clue

Hey all,
I'll be doing my first ever wall art mural outdoors. I mainly paint on canvas, so I was wondering what advice I can get!
Best acrylic paint to buy? How much should I get for a 8x16 wall?
Best spray paint to buy?
Any tips that you'd give a novice to not mess up a mural!
Thanks, everyone!

This is the result: https://www.justanother.com.au/product-category/matchbooks/ - some just matchbooks, some went OTT. It's also worth noting that in Australia's lockdowns, artists of all kinds (bands, painters, actors) |
Hello, I have an illegal piece as well as a sketch of the piece, I would like to post on my personal instagram account. I understand I would probably get into trouble if I specified that I made the piece, but what if I didn’t?, could I perhaps say that SWIM made the piece or something like that? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

| | It's London Mural Festival during the whole of September, and different artists (local and international) have been decorating walls all over the city. I found this close to the Olympic Park / Hackney Marshes. It feels like a Blek le rat but not sure if it's one of his (it also looks more like a fox). Anyone? [link] [comments] |

I’ve seen some videos of artists doing something of a “wallpaper” method with paper cutouts and some sort of liquid adhesive that seems similar to modgepodge brushed on and adheres the image to any surface, I’m really interested in this method and the material used? If you guys know what this is called and what kind of materials are used (type of paper, adhesive) it would be great to hear. Kinda looking into getting into this that’s why I ask. Hope it’s cool to ask questions on here, everything

Thank you for any responses. I'm trying to remember a certain street artist that I really liked, I found him in a book "Grafitti art from 5 continents" I think that was the name of it. He had a cool style. Alot of the pictures had tribes people and tribeswomen, kind of cartoony but definitely a distinct style. I guess its hard to explain, I remember one mural he had said something like "Romance is not Dead" or something like that. Anyway know who I'm looking for? I'm trying to google it and I

Hi, I've been really interested in street art for the past few years and would love any podcast or documentary recommendations to keep learning more about the stories and thought processes of the art and artists. Even better if the docus are available via streaming!
