Micheal Gove, David Cameron and George Osborne. My first attempt at spray painting with 2 layered stencils. They were originally going to be wanted posters though I decided I liked them on their own. A2 on shiny and matte metallic card.
(Ignore the strange lines, they’re just where I’ve matched them up from the scanner!)

I had intended to make some lino prints, however ended up downloading some software and attempting a simple task of editing photos (something which I have no skills with whatsoever!). I looked at some tutorials on youtube and managed to make these with Picasa.
The white bits will be the colour of the paper - in this case high gloss and dull metallics, though they probably will end up being white when I downsize to A4 paper rather than A2/1 as I’ll be making “wanted” posters when I return to Salford after easter. It’ll definitely be fun to put some up around the place!
LIVERPOOL LIME STREET
An extremely productive trip to Liverpool with uni to look around galleries, which was the perfect day to get some more stickers outside the station and come back with my lip pierced too. I should not be allowed out.
Collages of David Cameron, Rupert Murdoch, Stuart Gulliver and Carlos Slim. Pretty clear what I’m trying to say with this one.
