street art addiction
My friends know I have always been fascinated with graffiti, not just tagging, but huge murals and train art really speak to me. This comes partly from loving colorful art and design, my previous years in Richmond (full of trains and all my friends were spray painting them), and my boyfriend's love of all street and urban culture. I don't usually do this but I thought I would share my new favorite artist's work with you. I know already that his use of bright, beautiful colors and organic patterns will influence my design work. I love stencil work like that of Banksy and plenty other street artists, but this guys addition of color is unreal. It speaks to street culture as well as reflects his home of Bogata, Columbia. I introduce you to Stinkfish...
