hillarian grafitti

i saw an exemplar for grafitti letters on pinterest and thought about doing a hillarian treatment. it was fun. but it needs refining.

and i need to finish the dots around the edge. i started on the N and was trying a variation where the dots go up and down in size. i think it has possibilities...

look below for a second post telling the outcome of the concert ticket lottery envelope.

    1. Why do you call it graffiti? It's illuminated, zentangled and hilarious. Where is it going and how will it get there without a stamp? The start of a very happy envelope

  2. The letterforms are reminiscent of the work done by graffiti artists on boxcars ... if you're interested, there's a book called Freight Train Graffiti which chronicles the history.
