This was an interesting project because I do not ever draw in “graffiti style” so this was a first for me. I have tried bubble letters before but not in this style. However, I believe the experience would have been different if I was able to go out and buy some spray paint, because unfortunately I did not have any at home.
I decided to paint out my nickname instead of than painting out my name. This would also give me more room on my poster paper.
I started out by drawing out the outline in pencil, then I traced it with a black marker. Once I had my outline, I decided to paint it. My sister gave me the idea to leave the name in black and white to resemble a panda. However, I wanted to add more color so I decided to make the letter “N” in the painting resemble bamboo.
I do not think I would voluntarily do another project like this because I do not usually like painting in this style and I do not like painting letters/words but this was an interesting and fun experiment.
