CITY SERIES INFO: Artist Above has traveled year after year following his passion making street artworks in over 60+ cities in 45+ countries around the world. After some cold beers and a lot of discussion Above mentioned that he wanted to make a “CITY SERIES” of prints taken from photographs of pieces he had created in different cities from around the world. Above wanted to make the series very personal in ALWAYS HAND COLORING AND FINISHING EVERY PRINT! In addition Above wanted each new edition to be small ( 25 in each edition).

**( Above insisted we inform you the buyer that no 2- print are the same. Quoting Above ” I like to mix and match colors to make each person buying a print get their own unique colorway. Having said that prints you see in the photos are sample colors and your print will be similar but different, if that makes sense? “)

PRINT INFO: After releasing 6 previous sold out cities in his City Series edition Above decided to take us for his next release to the central American city of GUATEMALA CITY, GUATEMALA. According to Above he did this funny word play in 2 hours and in between having 3 beers with his local Guatemalan friends. The statement “BY THE TIME YOU READ THIS, I’LL ALREADY BE GONE” applies to Above hyperactive travel schedule. We can only assume with 6 previous sold out editions that this print will also be sold out by the time you read this. We appreciate your support and hope you can be one of the lucky 25 people to purchase ABOVE GUATEMALA CITY

ARROW FLAG BACKGROUND INFO: “Every country in the world has a flag and each flag represents a visual language of that country and it’s history. Flags are everywhere in our day to day lives and are able to evoke a range of different reactions. Some people will go to war for their flag, others choose to deface or destroy other countries flags and even their own as a statement or protest to what it represents to them. Which ever your perspective flags do play an important role in history and the future.”

Above kicks off his arrow flag series with none other than the most popular color combination of red, white, and blue. While there are 18 different countries that have red, white and blue (we only counted 9 countries) Above decided to make Australia, France, U.S.A. and England the choice for these 4 arrows.

ABOVE PUT A GREAT AMOUNT OF TIME AND DETAIL INTO THIS FIRST LOVE EDITION. AS ALWAYS, ABOVE ALSO DESIGNED AND SCREEN PRINTED EVERYTHING HIMSELF. IT DOESN’T GET MORE PERSONAL THAN THIS!

FIRST LOVE INFO: We all hands down agree that this is Above’s most technical screen print he has made to date! Each of the 3 different “first love” editions were made with great attention and care. Quoting Above; ” I am extremely happy with the final result of each of the first love prints. The imagery is something that anyone who has been in love can relate to. Love can take on many different forms and stages and this print resembles the chase and innocence of trying to grab hold and keep that first love.”

ARROW EDITION (11 in the edition) INFO: “Being known for my arrow’s I thought it would be a great twist to the print to switch out the hearts for arrows. In addition this arrow edtion could be more suitable for the broken hearted and cynical lover.” Above hand finished each of these prints “green grass” with a quick swipe of his watercolor brush. Above used metallic GOLD ink instead of the normal edition “Pink” ink for the girls dress as well as metallic RED ink for the arrows

ARROW HAND FINISH EDITION (10 in the edition) INFO: Quoting Above; “each of the 25+ ascending arrows that the young girl is blowing were I carefully painted with different watercolors. There was a lot of love put into finishing and coloring each of these prints.” In addition Above used Metallic GOLD ink instead of the normal edition “Pink” ink for the girls dress as another added difference and charm.
