SUPER INTENSE HARDCORE ARTIST:
Street Artist, Swoon.
So, Swoon is a NYC based female street artist (a less demeaning term for graffiti artist) who specializes in intricate cutouts and drawings that she adheres to public spaces using wheatpaste. Her art is always delicate, and larger than life, usually pairing drawings of her family and friends with delicate paper cutouts to create an aesthetically pleasing (yeah, I know I sound like a fancy art nerd) result. She went to art school at Pratt Institute, so it's not like she's just some hoodlum from off the streets. She has been covering NYC (and other cities world wide) with her art for more than six years, and does not release her name to avoid being arrested and whatnot.
Some of her work:
yeah, that's all cut out paper. I wish I lived there...
Hey baby, you got tickets? TO THE GUN SHOW? HAHAHAHA. get it? guns? arms? wow.
Yeah, I'm not going to lie, this one is probably my favorite.
Anyway, I could post a bunch of pictures, but that would probably make this page slow to load, so if you want to see more of Swoon's work, just do a google image search for "swoon", there are PAGES upon PAGES of her stuff, trust me.
Well that's all for today, see you cool kids in class ;)
