Tear Down

Posted on April 1, 2016 by Fred

I rarely use a stencil more than one time these days, which seems ridiculous considering how much time I spend cutting them. I still want to preserve their uniqueness by keeping them limited but I also want to try more than one thing with some of them. This project really allowed for me to do both of these things. I think three iterations is enough for this one. 19 layers all hand cut it seems worth it to use them more than once.

best appetite suppressant to lose weight fast, they must get it fast. Some can only maintain their weight if their exercise partner puts up the effort to do so. Others need to think of “exercise,” rather than diet and dieting — that is, what they need to do to keep exercising.

Olive Ridley

I have been working on a series of animal stencils. This is the first water based animal for the series, and I can only imagine that the last project had something to do with the subject. Olive Ridley sea turtle on wood.

33rd Street Mural

Posted on March 30, 2016 by Fred

This summer I worked on a mural on 33rd street just off of Vliet Street. It was a collaborative project with Zenon Castillo who secured the wall, Ben Stark, and Eliot Patterson. Always a good time working with the homies. I was responsible for the gems and I also painted the grey scale lotus flowers.

A while back I did a quick mural for Blank Space, a great space for creatives.

Shapes on Wood

Posted on October 29, 2015 by Fred

I have been working on some new paintings recently that have been expanding on a number of ideas that I have explored before. One portion I have been loosely calling Shapes on Wood. (Super creative I know) these two went to the Art Pop event at Taylors Milwaukee September 27th 2015. The blue one happens to be the first pattern that I created a vector for and then laser cut the pattern, the other one features a hand cut stenciled pattern which is how I have been creating all the other patterns up until this point.

The blue pattern of squares is also a small test for much larger project that I have been working on. Photos to follow soon.

Earn The Day

I love painting letters, so this project was a lot of fun. Earn The Day is the motto for the client,and it just so happens that I feel the same way, which makes it even better.

Indigo Bunting Mural

Posted on June 26, 2013 by Fred

Yesterday I painted a mural on Fond Du Lac Ave. at about Meinecke Ave. It is on a boarded up fire damaged building, that needed a little improvement.

The bird is an Indigo Bunting which is found in South Eastern Wisconsin, around this time of year. (summer)

Here are progress and final shots of the painting. I will be going back the next sunny morning to hopefully get unobstructed head on pictures of the final product.

I feel great about this one, and it was a lot of fun to meet the people in the neighborhood that stopped to talk to me while I was working.
