Stencil of two-faced angry german dude

For this stencil I picked out a photograph off of lomography of this german guy's portrait which was taken with a splitzer allowing you to cut have of a frame but not necessarily always over-lapping doubles. I think it would look great on a wall somewhere with the right texture and maybe get that purple around the edges of the black or make it more multilayered.

Hunter S, Thomson and Ice Age

For this project I chose the writer Hunter S. Thompson and the lead singer and bassist from the Danish band Ice Age for my stencils. I wish I had the time to cut them out into real stencils, but I might be able to later on..not exactly sure yet. I was pleased with the way they both came out and I really need to start making stencils again because I used to do it a lot when I was 13 still living in Fredericksburg where my fellow friend and artist Gab taught me and I wasn't half bad.

Own project


I liked doing this assignment because it was completely my own and my results were awesome.
It was really cool to see what I could do and it made me feel better about the few photo's I took while seeing my sister in New York over the break. The top one I shot while coming up to Brooklyn with a few of the water and I took my canon EOS T3 Rebel with a telephoto lens 75-300mm and snapped a helicopter in the sky with the sun shining through the dark clouds. I merged that with another shot from Brooklyn of a tram passing through a graffited gap between roofs. The piece below that was taken on our way to Manhattan of the Brooklyn Bridge in the distance merged with a photo of a friends polaroids. I thought it came out good enough for me.
