New R.A.W wall installed today

This wall was just completed for 2nd time, and is better then ever. Spent the entire day talking to students and faculty about Risd Art Walls, I'm planning an open crit which will be in about a week to open the discussion of public art on campus and what people think good and bad.

This wall is located next to the Foundry on campus, come take a look.

Welcome all new students: the Block Party was a success

to the RISD community,

The block party was a success, RAW set up a live painting station were we had 3 panels for students to paint on. During this time we signed up over 80 interested students and emptied over 100 cans of Montana Gold cans of paint. We also had a special guest a local writer who came and Blasted out a original panel for all to see.

Check out the finished panel which will be hung on campus in the near future. Their will be a code next to the panel and a email. the first 5 to send the correct code to the email will get a prize.

RISD student vandalism: what do you think!

To the community,

This is a prime example of student vandalism, from looking around and talking to people a student took it upon themselves to vandalize this public painting, with no regards to the artist who spent many hours creating this piece of art for people to enjoy.

Give me your feed back, what do you think of this students actions.

** As part of RAW's club mission the club will work with the artist to fix all walls at no cost to the school.

New work on Campus:

This is a pic of the wall before RAW took over, very dull and not inspiring.

To start this wall was rolled in a 2 color fade, to create a base

This is the wall half way through, the artist is working on outline of the lettering.

New Walls painted on campus

This is the wall as it has been for many years, dull and white. check out the next pics to see how RAW is turning dull walls into inspiring locations for students to be creative.

Stage 1 this artist is a member in RAW he is a sophmore, he is working from a very small sketch and does an outline to lay out the concept before he starts the many layers of color to create this piece of ART.

Finished work, go check this out and give us some feedback.
