    Che Guerava Graffiti Style Stencil Canvas Art in the Art By People on line gallery...

    Che Guevara, the argentine marxist revolutionary who started his career under the leadership of Fidel Castro but later branched out all on his own in places such as Bolivia and the Congo. A feared leader in Guerilla warfare who also had a big hand in the 60's cuban missile crisis. 



    Its ironic that his image has become a capitalist product in its own right, huge demand on t shirts, mugs, and of course canvas picture artworks. Some would say its poetic justice. 

    Our Che Guevara images are all handsprayed onto canvas by one of our artists. The canvases themselves are cotton and have an image printed and stretched over a 4cm frame. We then spray the strong black, white and cream image straight over the top. You can see the bubbles and blemishes... in fact we make sure these are part of the sprayed design as this randomness is what makes an artwork individual and valued.
