Han Vipers House Painting

In celebration of the year of the snake I created a few stencil paintings to celebrate one of the four houses of my school, Han Vipers. 
Picture
The images were created using several hand cut stencils, spray paint, and marker.  I finally got hip to the Posca brand markers and really like them a lot.  The central building is of the Korean gate designed from a photograph I took with an old Olympus OM-10 camera.  I printed the photographs, blew them up on a photocopier and slowly cut the stencils into cardboard by hand.  The snake stencil was made from a drawing, and lots of trial and error.

The top left side reads Han Viper in Korean along with a wish for prosperity and health.  The bottom right features a gourd (more prosperity) and my name in Chinese, 酒仙 - Drinking Immortal, 文傑 - a translation from my given name, Devin.  To the left of that we have 寒露 which is the time of the year the paintings were completed.  This comes from an old, Chinese agricultural calendar.  In short it means the weather is getting colder.

Two of these paintings were on display at the teacher exhibition earlier this year (I forget which two.). There are designs to complete several more paintings for the Eagles, Dragons, and Tigers in the months to come.  These paintings are for sale in-person only for KRW 250,000 and I will make a KRW 100,000 donation to the annual fund if you buy before June.  Those who know, know how to find me.
