GRAFTER FLASH


Grafter has a new work at his SHOP titled Flash which comes in very ltd silver and gold versions. Grafter says: This week I was asked to paint a wall at Mutate Britain. One of the image I used was this.(Flash)It is a fully hand painted image on Arches 88 art stock and it is available in 2 Limited Edition versions, Silver and Gold.
The process of creating this particular image is as follows:
1) The whole paper is coated with 2 layers of black Montana Gold spray paint.
2) The white background of the image is made with 2 layers of hand brushed emulsion paint and allowed to dry.
3) The black layer of the boy is stencilled on, again using Montana Gold spray paint.
4) The white layer containing the camera, the boys arms, and the detail in the hair is then applied using a 2nd stencil.
5) The flair of the flash is hand sprayed on freehand.
6) Finally the discharge from the flash is hand splattered on using Metallic Montana paint and a sharp stick. Giving each and every copy it’s own individual mark.
Here are the details:
