One a did earlier this summer

Made this as a gift for my mom as shes a murder mystery fanatic and it celebrated some fav source material. 24x48

I've seen some posts here discussing vector halftone effects for use in stencils, and some have mentioned my app Vectoraster for creating those. Vectoraster is unfortunately macOS exclusive. However, I'm now working on a new vector graphic tool I'm calling Paragraphic that is cross-platform (mac, windows and linux), so I figured you might be interested in that if you're interested in halftones and vector gradient/pattern effects.

While not as specialized in halftones as Vectoraster you can make some pretty nice custom halftone effects in Paragraphic as well, as shown in this video, and you can do a lot more with the patterns and output compared to Vectoraster. Output is SVG vectors for cutting or plotting for example, though based on the complexity I probably wouldn't recommend trying to cut out all the halftone shapes by hand.

made this promo poster with the starring actress, our photo session consisted of taking two pictures in 30 seconds. got lucky.

One of the walls in my workshop. All stencils are single-layer. If you are interested, check out my YouTube channel. The link is in my profile.

Everybody puts out at least rat yeah? NGL the tiles were a challenge.

Finished with paint pens to do the fine lines, and some iridescent paint on the blue one to make it shine with depth

19 hand cut stencils. Have been really excited for this one. I can try to post some detail shots tomorrow if anyone is interested. I just got home from the studio and am crashing but was too impatient to wait to post

first time with this design. i cut a few more masks which should allow some interesting variations. instead of cutting cmyk, i just cut red and black, and painted the red layer gold.

Is there anyway to get a clean stencil without the background?

One of my works. When applying paint, the stencil did not adhere tightly to the surface, so it turned out imperfect.

I got this stencil almost 20 years ago in New York City. It has no markings or a signature. But I would love to know who the artist is. Does anyone have an idea? (People keep asking if this was a stencil of me on a bike. It’s a little creepy but it does look a little like me—something I didn’t realize when I bought it.)

(I reverse-google-searched the picture and found the stencil on a page of street art in Berlin. But again, no artist.)

Hand cut and sprayed stencil on skateboard griptape

Discontinued by the manufacturer, so if anyone simply provides me a link to buy them, they’ve been out of stock for awhile. I am desperate to try and recreate these balloon prints. I asked on Screen Printing, they said stencils would work better. I just want to get the same “spray” effect, that’s why I thought I could burn it into a screen. I have Kids water based acrylic spray paint and a spray marker gun. Want to find a turntable so the balloon spins as I’m applying the design. Can anyone please help me figure out how to lay the stencil out itself? The balloons are 11 inches, the standard size. I want the stencil to be just the right size so it fits on the balloon. Is there a discord for this type of thing? Hope someone can help instead of immediately hitting downvote.

experimenting with light-to-dark gradient in background while dark-to-light gradient takes the foreground. using gradients makes single-shot stencils more interesting, i think, but I'm not sure about the colors, and not sure i like the muddy middle. (should have used contrasting hues in the middle where values are more nearly the same)
