Shepard Fairey

Shepard normally used sheets of paper, he developed a new technique based on stencils to create this monk. Painted the back ground then put the stencil over it. The hand cut stencil was 30 ft. tall, which took days to do. Burmese monk, a continuation of the portraits of Aung San Suu Kyi, the Burmese democracy leader who is currently under house arrest.
