Love the Urban aspect you always keep in tow with your throw-ups man. I especially love this project because of the scope of unique and varying artists from different countries.

I never want to criticize your work, But rather pass over gentle critique.
I like the varying widths and thickness's of your signature style, In most cases a thick border to encompass the detail within. It intrigues me to know what paths were taken in developing your own true form, e.g- What experiments, Trials & Errors did you perform? And in the future what might you try next?

Sorry for sounding like an egotistical fag, Im just curious man, We haven't spoke for yonks! Keep it up bro

yo man. aye we aint talked in a while. and thanks for the critique.
i like the border on the outside. think it helps if its getting pasted out doors. problem is you can lose some of the depth and shadows when using a thick border. what pathes were taken? hmm im not to sure. i guess the triles and errors must show in the work. if anything i have siplyfied it down more. i dont use diagnal lines as much if i do at all. using more shadow. and just working on different line thickness to help bring things forword and push things back. its the subject matter i struglle with. cant always fully express things fully. im nver happy for long tho so i just keep working, chasing the fleeting monemnt of joy after a finished peice. i see u been busy man i like 'the screem' that u did man. still kocking out vertor stuff alot to i see. u ever make anything for the streets? we could go putting stuff up

Yeah i can agree, About losing depth and whatnot, But in my opinion it also helps contrast your pieces again the medium you are applying it to, Emboldens it in a way.

I guess you like pastes and stuff more than stencil these days? Is it that you prefer to design something in your own comfort and then be able to adventure out on a whim, Rather than face pressure of being caught in the act? Time is precious in those cases, I guess.

About subject content, I think you'll find a lot of people struggle with it, Because as an artist you view other art, That can influence and inspire you.. Which makes you want to be more unique, And subversively be prone to artists block and/or not liking a piece because you feel like you haven't met your own standards (Just a personal opinion of my own philosophical ways) but one way of knowing if i should dispose of unfinished or mid-lack of inspiration, Is to leave it for another day, I tend to keep coming back to old art and realising what it is that a piece is missing. Its as if when you are doing it, You become de-sensitized about knowing what is good/bad about your techniques, But with fresh eyes on another day you'll have that epiphany that makes you want to alter artwork dramatically. Not preaching here by the way, You've taken the Uni path and have probably heard more arty bollocks than i could ever imagine.

Yeah, Im stuck in the digital realm, At the moment im trying my hardest to develop a finished 2D game, Been teaching myself for a fair while now, And hopefully make some fucking money!

Ive been a fan of vectors for a longgg time, And its forgiving. One of the reasons i love digital art is how malleable it is, Unlike traditional art where if you fuck something up you'd have to take drastic measures to fix it, But saying that i tandem both media because freehand digital illustration just doesnt for me. I tend to draw something, Scan, and trace in Illustrator.

The last part, Im intrigued in. Havent done anything social or anything for ages! Total hermit at the moment man, But im sure i can produce some stickers and stuff! Only limiting factor has been money, No job or anything, But in the coming weeks ill serious think about hooking up again!

yeah i know what u mean. i draw things and think im on to something so i will plan to rework it. all this happens over a week or two or few month becose im always waying up wearher or not it is good or shit. i leave it a while and thing become a little clearer. then again somtimes i have to make the thing to find out if its shit or not. then if it is, i squeez all the worth out of it to make somthing worth while. i havnt done stencils for about 4 years. i remember i was doing em and i wanted to be the next banksy or blek le rat. after a while it became so bland for me. i was liveing in other artists shadows. i wasnt pushing anything just breaking down photos into stencils and expressing a message i thought people wanted to hear rather than some thought of my own. maybe im still in somones shadow and preaching anothers message i dont know but i feel more informed and well rounded, feel more confident in my work and what not. this 'style' i have, i mite get tired of that soon who knows. the wheatpating is good man. i like the decay. nothing lasts. it looks alot less threning than spraying so i do it in the day and dont get to much hassle. tho i did get a fuckin fine tho a while back.

working on your own game? thats mint mate. its mad how ur self tought. u always seem to land on ur feet. im guessing theres a lot of work behind all that. man im jobless to. been flat broke for a while now. im back in my lovley home town tho so we should get to geather. btw do u happen to know where i can get my hands on some decent quailty vinial stickers?

and i am sorry for all the shit spelling that i prob made here
