numb finger

so...this is a "muah!" background that i just finished for vicki taufer and josh blick, at V Gallery  (which i am very excited about sending out) (aaand, if you look in the bottom left corner, it says 'v.t. rocks and blick is the bees knees)  lol...i hope that they someday notice that :)
 i had not done a grafitti background of this size yet, and i have learned something.  number one...masks really are important unless you want a raw spot on the back of your throat..and number two, they have spray can accessories that you will need--a spray can holder with a trigger.  and i will be getting one asap and i'm pumped about it!!  i still today have a numb finger from too much spraying--i guess i squished my nerve endings.
for the record..if i ever drop out of background making, i think i'll go for grafitti artist...i know why they get addicted--its a blast!
here is a picture and you can see a tiny bit of the studio.  yes, i have green carpet that is slowly getting covered by overlapping paint can spills :)  its actually an old funeral parlor --you can see the old mauve and blue border still up..that somehow went with the green carpet?  hmmmm.....  :)

  3. All the backgrounds that you sell are different or do you paint the same one again or is there a way that you can make a copy just like the first one? Or is each one hand painted in a different way?
