Fonts, Superheroes, Carriageworks, Savants, Shots from the move and Shit Cunts.

As previously mentioned (Angsted over?) in this blog, I was fortunate enough to get a guernsey for the Go Font Urself show which kicked off in Brisbane recently and then had the Sydney show last Wednesday. The night was top fun, slanged a print, got to watch Bones burn the place down with a live demo of the real old school style sign writing steelos (Why he wasn't writing down the numbers of all the ladies ogling in the gallery behind him is beyond me?), caught up with heaps of peeps, scoffed some Thai with the wife and Daddy Depoe and then finished the night with a beer with the organiser and some other cool kids. Nice one Mart!



Boner burns the signage styles...


While Saynt-Koons slangs prints slagging off shit Sydney steel (Sounds suspicioulsy like Dr Seuss)


Recently myself and a couple of the boys rocked a pretty sweet super hero themed proddy, some sneak peaks are below. Unfortunately some jealous shit cunt decided to cap a good portion of it as part of his continuing campaign for attention based on slashing his betters... they say you are nobody until someone hates you, and to quote a famous Surry Hills trend forecaster and all around purveyor of cools... 'I'm on your mind, you're not on mine!'
I got my flicks and the skills, you ain't got shit toy...

Some bad ass Bruce Timm styles crushing 'Laks in his bare hands...

On a far more positive note, on Saturday I was priveledged to get a run on the painting demo at Platform 3. In the company of such legends as Days, Dream, Unique and more, I pumped out a quick piece using the unusual palette provided and came up trumps, in what I am certain was a close competition. It was great to see so many peeps I have not had the chance to catch up with in ages, and in true graffiti space cadet style I missed the winners announcement and luckily the lovely wife was on hand to fill me in. It was a fun afternoon, and a real credit to the organisers and participants, Sydney finally rocking some of the good aspects of hip hop culture in stark contrast to the mentalities of some of the gronks out there such as mentioned above.


Scribbling away... finished pics to come soon or check out the C.O.P coverage for more on the event.


Finally, got my grubby mits on some old flicks languishing on a long lost CD unearthed during the recent move...


Peep the dope pink-scale Stone cazza, in a secluded bush spot that was a fave back in the early 00's... So dope. Had the pleasure of rocking a piece with the man last weekend, his first in over a year, more needed, get back out asap mate!


And in tribute to the dope signwriting inspired public letter funk display from the one and Bonely earlier in this post, also unearthed in the move was the below set of public style (Nuisance?) pics, from one of my old fave writers... video grab of pretty fast back jump action... somewhere out there exists a super sneaky pic of the finished article lurking in the sheds later...



And finally, I have been doing a lot of drawing lately as part of an art class I am running to teach disadvantaged young people art skills for stress and anger management. It is great fun and recently have been discussing the work of this guy, an awesome note to end of for anyone who thinks that they can draw... peep this lad- Now that's drawing!
