Defacing Ideas and graffiti

A few experimental drawings using graffiti and the idea of defacing on top of my original drawings. I wanted to add a splash of colour  to bring them to life.

Urban Evolution 
Portraits Project

Burton Machen took a series of photographs of famous and political people and placed them on the streets of New York and saw how they would evolve over time by factors such as graffiti and weathering. I am going to deface some of my images and drawings , Burton Machen project Urban evolution was good to look at as it was interesting what graffiti ideas people came up with that I could use to feed into my own work.

Ideas

I want to combine geometric shapes to bring the tradition features in Religion up to date and modern. I'm going to be looking at figures and I find the gravity and defacing of these images interesting.
