Aliviar Coffeehouse – Graffiti show

Super Dylan — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 02:44:07 +0000

Two Steez, Two Simple now hanging through the month of August at Aliviar Coffeehouse on NE 42th between Broadway and Sandy.

Every time I come around your STEEZ; Bling Bling.

This new graff piece is a re-paint of a mixed media canvas I recently showed at the last Bombs Away show. I finally found some success with the massive 600 ML gold can. It’s a high pressure can which complicates painting on a small scale but working with the bling was the real challenge for me.

Here are some pics of the piece I hung on the corner of NE 30th and Emerson this month.

Rise and Shine – Corvallis Mural

Super Dylan — Fri, 21 May 2010 18:40:32 +0000

My last Art show at Bombs Away Cafe yielded a nice surprise. I was contacted by Jay Zantos, a transplated graff artist from SoCal attending OSU. He really liked some of my work and we started emailing back and forth. Next thing I know we paint this huge mural down in Corvallis on the day I picked up the show from Bombs Away.

Jay was the idea man behind this piece, he was inspired by the trains waking up the city of corvallis early in the morning. A lot of people are angered by the morning wake up calls, however I was on Jay’s page big time. I lived on 8th and Washington my last year of college with a balcony that I could clearly see the train from. Everytime I heard the train I’d rush out to check out the graffiti. It wasn’t long before I found my new neighbors doing the same thing as they were graff writers as well. I have heard trains called “rolling art galleries” If only everyone was on that page and painting them was not illegal but encouraged…

We got a lot of people involved in this mural. The Alchemist sent out someone for an interview and a photographer to cover the session. Check out the interview in this issue, and we made the cover of this issue. For an absurd amount of pictures check out Will’s flickr.

New Graffiti piece

I really like this new graff piece, I have Ironlak dialed in with the right tips and I would say this is my cleanest most polished piece to date. You can find this piece displayed on the corner of NE 30th & Emerson (just behind the Cup & Saucer) starting next week.

Revolution Parkour Mural

Super Dylan — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 05:45:41 +0000

This parkour facility in Beaverton has so many open walls, this “small” mural is just a start to our work at this location. Painted with two new cats DeAngelo Raines with Art not Crime and his buddy “Fayah Cat” Chris. With this collab mural Delo painted the Revolution, I painted the Parkour, Chris painted the parkour siloutte and we worked together for the background.

Basement Graffiti on the Half Wall

Super Dylan — Sat, 17 Apr 2010 16:36:41 +0000

Spiced up the neighbors basement with a little graffiti on the CMU half wall. Now our little jam spot has a dope back drop. My love for Ironlak paint is growing quickly, I have tips ironed out and there are some seriously thin lines in this piece.

New Graffiti – Cuz Matty got that Steez

Super Dylan — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 15:13:15 +0000

Here is a new Graffiti on Canvas piece for my friend Matty. He just moved back to Portland and had to outfit the new digs with some custom graffiti so I hooked him up with a helping of the Steez.

Art in Hand – 4 of Spades

Super Dylan — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 06:31:17 +0000

Art in hand is a cool project. Take 54 artists, have them create original art for a unique deck of cards then auction the original pieces and donate the proceeds to charity! Charity of my choice was humane society for the life saving response for Starsky cat.

Of course my piece has SIMPLE strewn about. Here was my process…. Plan, Tape, spray paint, untape, sharpie, clear coat, pictures. I have seen most of the final work in a super secret facebook group – I assure you this is a very cool very unique deck of cards. Glad to be a part of this projcet.
