This is the work of artist Greg Boudreau. I was introduced to Greg by a mutual friend and became an instant fan of his work. His use of intricately layered stencils on salvaged wood creates stunning pop imagery. The scale of these pieces is nothing short of impressive so I’ve included the measurements in the captions. If you’ve ever stenciled before, you know the amount of time it takes just to do a small one color stencil, Greg’s are huge (up to 11 x 29 feet) and can have dozens of colors.
Greg just relocated from Seattle to California, near San Diego. He doesn’t have any shows planned, but be on the lookout. If you have a chance to go, I would highly recommend it.
You can see much more of his art on his website project1042.com

I couldn’t agree more. I discovered Greg at the Alberta Street Fair in Portland last summer and was just blown away. Its amazing, but I can’t even wrap my brain around how you would begin to setup a stencil that large. I would love to see a short documentary on his process….david? jimmy? karl? any takers?
