I decided to go out and shoot a graffiti set for you guys, hope you enjoy!
-North Lombardy.
Sorry to stray away from the original purpose of this blog but I feel so passionately about current events that I have to share it with the 800+ people who follow Graffiti Richmond. As most of you know I am a female and feel passionately about my rights as a women. Lately the government has decided to seemingly turn its back on our rights and try to control the decisions made about our body, sexuality, and choice. As a result, I have decided to create this screen with the intention on making patches, t-shirts, posters…what have you. If anyone is interested in helping out with the making of or obtaining a print of some sort please feel free to let me know. If you’d rather not have anything but wouldn’t mind reblogging the message of Virginia Doesnt Own My Vagina I would greatly appreciate it.
Today marks a year since I first created this blog. Oh what an interesting venture this blog has led me on. So much more to come in the future. Woot woot.
I wanted to make it known that no content on this blog may be used for any reason by any outside party without written and documented permission by myself or those who have shared content with me.
police be warned. Acab.

FRENCH VANILLA FROSTING RECIPE
3 tablespoons vegan margarine
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
!/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2-1/2 cups vegan crispy rice cereal*
1 (16-ounce) jar peanut butter
2-1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup + 3 tablespoons vegan margarine; divided, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup vegan chocolate chips
*note: I did not use this much powdered sugar nor did i mix this much butter with the peanut butter. I felt the taste/fat would be unnecessary. the end product turned out delicious and i do not regret cutting some of the recipe out
this piece was created a few weeks ago.
i must say that i am very proud of it!
i believe i will be making a few more pieces to compliment this one.
obviously this was greatly inspired by dadaism.
a few months ago i found random scraps of wood and adored the shape of this one.
i wanted this piece to be a little different so i combined the wood with paper and added a touch of paint and hand drawing.
after using my old action sampler lomo i found that i love it all over again.
the photographs taken last week came out very well and even inspired me to create a blog dedicated to the photographs of graffiti that I take.
more photographs can be viewed at the flickr site
I decided to create the blog on Tumblr (even though apparently that may not have been a keen idea due to google search etc)
i decided to name it GRAFFITI RICHMOND (richmond graffiti was taken? even though I couldn’t find it)
