Random tips / points / ideas:

Street art Do not limit yourself. You can use virtually anything to get a message / image out there: Flypost pen drawings or paintings, stickers, paint bombs, blackboard paint + chalk, draw on gaffa tape, police cars, supermarket products, road signs, billboards, prison walls, embassies, corporate headquarters etc. . what you can with what you got..- will keep this brief. Nobody reads big blocks of text. Spray paints are not the only fruit. They are expensive, the nickable ones tend to be car paints which are mostly (not all) crap. They are bad for the air. Air is important. Rollers on a reasonably smooth surface cover well, can funk letters and block in characters. If you use water based, you can spray outline / shades over the top while it is still wet. fucked if it rains obviously. (Spray colours brighter with undercoat; can be gloss, but dries slow.) But, wont talk too much about sprayz coz there are enough spray heads out there and not enough respect for the environment. ( hypocrit me.) wallpaper paste is easy to get hold of. Use it it conjunction with random drawings or selected letterings...

Mmm. Tasty billboard subverts. Most adverts are so sick-making they do three quarters of the work for you...go to the links page for more inspiration..

stencils. yes. very easy to make. Find / draw image. Photocopy to get the size right, work out what you want to cut out baring in mind you don't want it too flimsy,-stick to acetate / old x-rays / card, cut out. voila mon chere. Particularly good for skint people who cant afford twenty cans of paint to make a picci. 1 spraycan. Or brush, takes longer tho..

How to make paint bombs...

Very good for random colour 'n defacing high-up stuff billboards and suchlike. You need: Balloons, fairly dilute paint (so it splatters well), and wax* like the stuff you get in candle making kits. Fill the balloons with water and tie 'em up. About the size of a tennis ball is good. Melt the wax and dip the balloon in it a few times, till you've got a nice thick layer. Let it fully dry, then pop the balloon and fill the hollow ball with paint. Seal it by putting a piece of paper over the hole and dribbling wax over it till it is stuck good. Keep them the right way up until you use them. eekpocketfuckmess...

*If you live in the UK there might be a scrap store / community / industrial recycling place nearby. These have loads of good random tat in them for creativity. This is where we found vast quantities of wax, stickers and free paint.
