spray paint on canvas from unique hand-cut stencils

i create each design with a limited number of copies in mind. borrowing from street art stencil culture, where you throw the same piece up multiple times, i use the same design for multiple canvas paintings. each piece has its own custom drawn, cut, and destroyed stencil making every work completely unique.
