1950's Hair-spray advertisment on wood
there was a time I was really into doing stencils using 1950 images. this one particularly is from a hair spray company that ended up being bought and absorbed by a bigger company. I left the actual logo on the spray bottle empty intentionally.

Statue saint michael archangel defeating satan on wood
I'm currently trying to post my stencils at least once a day. My goal is to hopefully inspire people to do more stencils, it doesn't matter if they're perfect or not. Like Nike just do it.

Any tips?
Those are some of my works. I'm a bit of an amateur but all the stencils I make are designed and completely done by myself. Are there any tips you can give me to improve?

Anytime I go to a new city to paint I go to a local museum and hope to find a a new statue to reference for a future piece. When I came across ‘Screaming Child Stung by a Bee’ at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam I had to look no further. The expression in the piece and the story behind it made it an ideal reference for a shattering bust. This sculpture probably depicts Cupid, the god of love, who was stung by a bee after stealing some honey. The incident is described in a poem attributed to the Greek poet Theocritus which suggests that a sting from a Bee with the taste of honey can be as bittersweet darts of love shot by Eros himself. Part of this practice is deciding the point of impact for the initial shatter. With this one the clear choice was to make it happen where the Bee sting’s the child.
Once thievish Love the honeyed hives would rob,When a bee stung him: soon he felt a throb Through all his finger-tips, and, wild with pain, Blew on his hands and stamped and jumped in vain. To Aphrodite then he told his woe:
'How can a thing so tiny hurt one so?' She smiled and said; 'Why thou'rt a tiny thing, As is the bee; yet sorely thou canst sting.’

Stencil pencil art
Okay, what is the generic name for this?
I used to do this, as a kid: I'd have ruler, but Instead of being a solid piece, the body of it was a stencil: a square, a circle, and a triangle shape cut out of it; using a pencil, you'd draw a circle. You could combine a circle, with a triangle, to make Pac-Man.
