A unique mix media I created from Cement, Neon, Spraypaint I've created Graffiti art on canvas but it never really gave me the authentic look I want it. after several years of experimenting, I found a cement the works for me its light and easy to work with. it gives me that real feel of street walls. I also added neon lights I grew up admiring the neon signs at the local corner store or theaters especially the vintage signs. I add neon to give it a contemporary look to the piece.
