“KBLR” -BORN Broke-

4 layer spray painted stencil on 2/228 labels.

a cherub wearing a Bluejay mask, holding a Tech sitting on his thrown of letter blocks.

Symbolizes, being born into poverty causes people to get their thrown by any means, regardless if you try being pure of heart, conditions can change that about you.

Temporary glue for stencils

I use a lot of plastic film stencils on textiles. Big, simple images are fine and I'm happy I've got that down, but more complex images with thin, delicate parts, not so much :0( I've been trying temporary mounting sprays and they certainly work, but I end up with one side of a delicate stencil needing cleaning with a solvent - it usually takes decent pressure to get the glue off even then so it's easy to damage the stencil.

I just tried Cadence stencil spray, described as water-based and easily cleaned. I hoped the glue would dissolve in warm water, but it's pretty much the same as all the other products I've used.

I want to get the glue off the stencil so it's easily used on both sides and simply to make it easier to store and I want to get it off without rubbing (much). Has anyone come across a way of temporary gluing stencils that is easy to remove after use?

El Último Tango

Spray paint and diamond dust.

The skull is a 5 layer stencil
The rose is a separate 5 layer stencil so they can be used independently of one another.

Full image is 12”x 12”

First attempt with stencil art

First attempt at stencil paintings in general. I licensed the images from an online artist named ShooArt so I could practice with something.

I have really shaky hands from nerve damage but loved working on art as a teen. This is sort of my way I can relive that feeling again.

8x10 canvas panel with a black spray paint base and acrylic spatters. Stencils cut out and reverse weeded with my sister's cricut machine 😂 spray varnish for protection of course. Any feedback appreciated!

Testing out the biggest stencil I've ever done before I put it up

It's two layer and my worry behind if it'd look right after all the work I out into it was alot. It was a very "trust the process" process.

“KBLR” -Neutrality-

4 layer stencil outlined in acrylic paint pens.

Bluejay Skull, with devil horns and a halo, tag name bottom jaw with a rope tied around his beak.

named it Neutrality because the image shows the Bluejay in a sort looking as if he’s sad/concerned. The devil horns contradict the halo, and his mouth his tied shut, not allowing him to speak his peace. so he’s forever stuck in neutrality.

hope yall like it!
