Started making these 5x7 inch prints of smaller stencils. 

Reads: We never really made it that far west. 

Set of smaller stencils put together.

Clockwise:

#1 Reads: Money costs some dreams. 

#2 Reads: Good luck getting God on the phone.

#3 Reads: You'd hardly think it could keep on

More texturing, not a new stencil. 

I focused a lot on adding some texture to prints today, but made this stencil too. 

I'm back at it for the rest of the summer until school begins again. Hopefully I can average one every few days or so....but this heat will test that. 

This reads: Do you still sing your heart out?

Baudrillard Goes Cross-Country: 

Hi all, this is a new project I am going to be starting. I leave this Tuesday (May 31st) for Philadelphia on the first leg of a trip around the country. The idea struck me today: What does this country need more of? Hope. This is why I am making one hundred posters with my pal Baudrillard's quote on it. I'm going to put these up in cities, rest stop bathrooms, sign posts, wherever! 

Now I need some things from you guys. If you could reblog this it would be so awesome. I want to get the word out so people will start looking for things, or at least know about them in case they see them. I will be taking pictures the whole way along with where exactly they are and will try to put that info up on the web as soon after it is gathered.
