Graffiti Art a Simple Diy Idea for you to Make at Home.

02/06/2017

Graffiti art are you a fan? I am, I enjoy the looseness of the style, the freedom and wildness of it all, not to mention the colours!

I don’t however, approve of vandalism and graffiti ‘tagging’, thats a subject far removed from Graffiti Art and artists.

This idea would work very well in a teenagers room

Selwyn Senatori

I recently met a wonderful artist in Shoreditch, London. It happened quite by accident, Marc and I were having lunch at the Hotel he was exhibiting at, his name was Selwyn Senatori  He was very elegant and very funny. If I could afford his art work I would be snapping it up. Here then is the obligatory selfie taken by Marc…

Graffiti Art in Shoreditch

Shoreditch is filled with the most awe inspiring graffiti. A city art form we dont see much of in rural Dorset! In london it is everywhere, colourful, cheerful and doesn’t take itself too seriously!

Inspired by what I had recently seen and after spotting a similar project in Abigail Ahern’s decorating book. I set to work on my own version…

A Graffiti Art Diy:

You will need some ‘tourist tat’ oil canvases you know the type almost like the paint by numbers you probably worked on as a child (oh my goodness how I loved my oil paint by numbers sets when I was young!) I find lots of these pics at boot fairs. They are invariably freshly painted.

I could never use old ones, so please don’t be horrified by my irreverent use of somebody’s ‘ART’ In fact I have old kitsch ones up on the wall too…

Spray paint, I think luminous colours work well I used neon pink, but you can’t actually see how bright it is in the pics for some reason?

Be brave and just go for it..!

Next either sketch a very simple design with a pencil on the canvas first, or go free hand as I did with my peace sign. For the heart I ripped out a heart shape from a piece of paper and used it like a stencil, then sprayed over it.

I like that one the best, it gave a clean edge…

I know this may not be everyone’s cup of tea! But it is definitely ours and we love it.

Slightly shocking, totally unique and all handmade. It also adds some fun into the room and you can’t argue with that!

Here are the finished oil paintings,  alongside some really old beauties and a few of  those kitsch ones I mentioned earlier… Taadaaah!

Proud Muvva ! 
2nd year of his commercial photography degreeand a selection of my boy’s @jacobcramp work can be found in @pierjournal issue 2.
I think he takes timeless portraits. He only uses film and develops his own film too. I won’t mention what he thinks about digital photography ( 😳) 
He is also becoming an very good cook. He cooks for us when he visits. 
I can’t wait to see what the future brings for him.

Me, my dog, a bowl of crochet monsters, coffee brewing and chocolate digestives in the tin. Welcome to my world. I’m so rock ‘n roll it hurts!
.
Book is where the patterns for the monsters can be found, save for reference it’s a good one.

Cashmere and wool from @nomad_slt saved from landfill and made into a warm, soft and squishy top! Pattern by @papercutpatterns I’ve had it years and made lots of T-shirts.

I have a long list of stylish #japanesesewingpatterns I want to sew. They are mainly lightweight dresses and shirts, summer projects. All from these fabulous #japanesesewingbooks in my collection. 
One of my most worn makes was this shirt from the nano Iro book.

A bowl of fossils found on the beach. Large jar of hag stones that Marc brings home for me. A collection of beautiful @penguinclassics from a house clearance sale. An old wooden panel from a skip. An Ikea lamp that is 25 years old. Bits and bobs from boot fairs. 
All this and more makes for a home with spirit and personality and a very pretty #shelfie !
