Urban Art inspired Photo Art

This piece began with a self portrait and a custom made stencil which I taught in one of my Technique Tuesdays. Photo art is definitely one of my passions; I love that the printed photo is the canvas in which I build upon….


“Leap of Faith”

Boldness has genius, power and magic.
Engage, and the mind grows heated.
Begin, and the work will be completed.
- johann wolfgang von goeth

Here’s a few more cool urban art/graffiti sites that I think are worth taking a look at:
Creating a 3-layer multi-color stencil design can be found at Stencil Revolution
How to make street art at Visual Resistance
Download wall stencils from PB Teen

Take a look at these amazing works of art:
“The Bus Kiss” image posted on flickr by LeFleneur
Butterfly stencil wall from “The Toyshop Collective”
“Pulp Fiction”
posted on flickr by “the wacky doodler”
urban art Adidas style
…and last but not least, the epitome of “cool”…Johnny Cash stencil art: and “Walk the Line” poster art

Altered Photo Art


“oh, the possibilities…”

And for a breath of ecstasy,
give all you have been,
or could be.
- Sara Teasdale

My growing passion for photography has brought with it a resurgence of creative photo art…here, a hand-colored and distressed black and white photo is layered over a simple mixed media collage.

Photo Art

I’m definitely on a photography kick these days…and there is no shortage of magnificent elements to photograph here in Colorado.

Sticks and stones are hard on bones,
aimed with angry art,
words can sting like anything
but silence breaks the heart.
- Phyllis McGinley


In the depths of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
- Albert Camus

Photopainted Bayou

Louisiana Swamp
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you in the hurricane-affected states…
This is one of my favorite hand-painted photos…an illuminated bayou; taken by my friend Glenn last September in Louisiana.

I couldn’t help playing around with a photo of my son in his Halloween costume…here’s a tutorial called Attack of the ipod People if you’ve got a great photo to silhouette.

Altered Fashionista

Altered photo transfer
Had a little fun with a image transfer…
Tissue paper and pastels add cool texture and playful color to this time-travelling fashionista. I really like the contrast of the soft image against the bold lines and shock of color.
