A lot of people think the only artist producing stencils is Banksy, they obviously haven't checked out Stencil Revolution ! Stencil Revolution should be the first port of call for stencil artists old and new, with a massive gallery of work on and off the streets as well as a very active forum, it will inspire and inform you to get out there and get cutting. Here's a few images I grabbed from the gallery to show you that it's not all about one colour images of the same old subjects done in the style of Banksy/Blek le Rat. These images are Nazza by Nazza Hendrix by Zenzenzen Street Gold by Meek It goes to show you that there's a whole lot more to it than you first thought, and if you're on the SR forum, drop by friend of Fat Buddha, Klingatrons gallery and leave a few comments. We have paint coming out of our ears and in nearly 200 different colours, your sure to find one that you like. There are loads of tutorials online to teach you the basics, but as t...

Had an interesting visitor to the shop on Monday that our artistic followers should be very interested in.... Marisa from a company called Method Furniture has been working closely with friend of the shop and stencil whizz kid Klingatron , so when she asked him where the best place to find artists, graffiti artists, designers and illustrators he naturally told her to pop in and have a chat with us. Her company produces high end furniture and they are currently looking to recruit some artists (from all disciplines) to collaborate with them on their hand crafted wooden cubes. Make no mistake, they are only after the best of the best, but are also hoping to discover some hot new talent to sit alongside some big names they're already in talks with. If you think you've got what it takes to impress them, send some examples of your work or a link to your website to studio@methodfurniture.co.uk, and if you're good enough, your work may be appearing on one of their cubes in t...

I've had a couple of people in the shop over the past couple of days asking about stencil graffiti and have been showing them the work of Glasgow stencil artist, friend of Fat Buddha and all round good guy, Klingatron . Klingatron is quite well known on the internet and has exhibited all over the place - on his own, in group shows and with Xynthetic Collective. If you haven't seen his work, check out his website gallery and be suitably impressed by the many hours he spends cutting up his stencils! Here are a couple of his most recognised works... and here's a nice little vid of the man himself at work... We've got a couple of his sweats and beanies (with the bear graphic) in the shop .

Klingatron is Glasgows very own Stencil artist, hes done shows wiht Mr Jago, Smug and a few others, his pieces are works of art and the effort he puts into them is unbelievable, check out his Youtube vids, the T's are made from the Hanes Beefy T, the heaviest Weight, best washing & fitting T ever invented, and for only £20 its the steal of the century. Buy it HERE.

Found these images on Mattscat Flickr, from a recent show at the Studio Warehouse in aid of raising funds for the Princes Trust, This is some of the work by Klingatron, Glasgows best Stencil Artist, go online and see his work here , if you feel a bit more generous, you can purchase his stuff here . I got myself and Big Al from Sneakerthings a Klingatron Bear T/shirt each, for the prie of £10 they are great value for money, Beefy T so good good quality, so buy one. http://www.klingatron.com/ http://klingatron.bigcartel.com/
