A friend of mine, who is a great fan of Stencil and Graffiti, introduced me to one of the most interesting street artists I've seen lately. Mr. X is a really talented street artist with a remarkable stencil style. The amount of details he delivers on each piece are impressive.

Stencil Inspiration: Easter AIG hunt by ABOVE

abduzeedo — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 10:58:04 +0000

The street artist Above has just finished a huge stencil art with a very clear critic to the AIG executives and their greed. He believes that it is his best stencil work ever. If he says so, who am I to disagree? Check it out because it's awesome.

I just finished painting this intense stencil that comments on all the AIG executives greed and wrong doings that is in the major media. I personally think this is my best stencil works....

Above is an extremely talented artist whose work can be seen all over the world. I had long discussions with him about his awesome Graffiti Tour to South America and the Sign Language Tour where he visited 26 countries. Every each of his masterpieces has a special message. Enjoy the many projects this young artist has done.

Stencil Inspiration

PauloGabriel — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 14:21:36 +0000

What's up, everyone? Well, this week I made a presentation in college about stencil. I've been a sucker for this kind of graffiti for some time now, and made 5 cuts until now, and plan to do more. Have you ever made a stencil? If you haven't here's a little push. ;)

Making a stencil is really easy. You can find dozens of videos over youtube showing you the whole process. I've selected 3 of them. Check them out.

Now, if you want any ideas on what to make a stencil of, I tell you: pop culture! That's my take for sure. Mostly I make stencil of classic movies, or iconical elements, like the Heroes eclipse. Check out a few images you could make a stencil of (I know you'll get difficulty getting a contrast out of these, but still, these would make awesome stencils):

I hope all these videos and images make you stencil!! You'll really get into it! Cheers! ;)

Banksy tours America

Francisco — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 19:10:29 +0000

Banksy is in the news again this week. First because he tried to donate a piece of art to the Labour Party in the UK and second because he is currently taking a tour across America spreading his politically-toned outdoor urban art.

Banksy tried donating a piece of art to the Labour Party in the UK but unfortunately due to his anonymous identity they couldn't accept it. Read more about it here.

Here is the piece that was donated:

Banksy is traveling across America right now placing pieces of his graffiti art in cities that have experienced certain problems recently (and in history). On his website you can view his progress. So far he's been to New Orleans and Alabama. Can't wait to see where he goes next.

Here are a select few from New Orleans and the last one is from Alabama:

Streetart Inspiration Part 1: Banksy

aloa — Thu, 15 May 2008 13:21:00 +0000

Banksy is an awesome street-artists from Bristol* (England) and probably the most loved/hated. Im in love with his artworks since i bought his book "wall and piece". Check out the great stencil art he does all over the world.

* Thanks to Abduzeedo-user "Simon" for recognizing the mistake.

CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) are the surveillance systems that often are seen in London. And now recognize that Banksy painted this pictures right next to one of these cameras.

Check out his portfolio http://banksy.co.uk/
