Portland Brew Preperations

We've been doing a lot of prints lately getting ready for an upcoming exhibit at the three Nashville area Portland Brew Coffee Shops. The Rebellion will be in Sylvan Park and East Nashville starting the second weekend of March. Then in April we will be at the location in the 12th South neighborhood. Go check those spots out!
We had an art night to finish up a lot of the work. We will post all new projects soon.

T-Shirt Design #1

We just got in our first order of WorkForce Rebellion t-shirts. The lettering was created from the stencil used in Project #1 - Southern Hospitality.
Each run of shirts we do will be a limited run of 25, and they will be sold for $25. They are printed on the soft, 100% cotton American Apperal Ts. On this design we have black, navy and grey in mens sizes M, L and XL.
Support the Rebellion and buy a fresh T-shirt. It's sure to impress your friends.

Project 13 - Pawns in the Game

Audroc created this poster. All pawns unite!

Size - 17.5" (tall) x 7" (wide)

Bashville Stampede 4 - Trophies

Audroc has been representing b-boy culture for a long time. He's the OG break dancer of Nashville. So, he always supports Bashville Stampede, the biggest b-boy event/competition held in Nashville. It is thrown by Rocketown and Illville crew and organized by Q-Kong. This year it was bigger and better than ever.
Audroc made the trophies last year. The trophies went over so big with the participants, they asked AudRoc to make them for 2008. Here is what he created, and a picture of Q-Kong showing them to the crowd.

Rex2 & Rago production

Rex2 (TM crew) was invited by Rago (IA crew) to get down on a legal spot that IA hooked up. Rex2 was glad to do it. They started on Saturday, February 16, 2008 and finished up the next week. Here is the finished production.
Big ups to Rago and the rest of IA crew.

Project 12 - My Valentine

Audroc, being the single guy, is always thinking of ways to impress the fairer sex. Tonight, on Valentines Day, he's hitting the town to bless 25 lucky ladies with these slim posters. The design features a boquet of red roses, and are sure to make the girls smile.

Size 17.5" x 7"

Quick Rebellion Plug

Rex2 ran into Nashville graffiti writer Begr-NSH, IA. Beg had a little something going and invited Rex2 to join in. The result was a little graffiti advertising for the rebellion.

Project 11 - Jungle Green

Krylon used to make the color Jungle Green but stopped in the late 1980s. Since then it has become graffiti lore. The color never went out of style with writers. Clever techniques were invented to mix spray paint. Mixing yellow and green gave artists varities close to the original.
Today many writers collect vintage spray paint and Jungle Green is one the most covetted colors. One Nashville collector has found some of these rare cans. Rex2 was lucky enough to buy his favorite color and some other great dead-stock cans from him. Rex2 created and painted this poster in honor of a great color that represents a period in graffiti with many innovations.

Tastes Like Burning Show

Thursday, February 7, 2008 Audroc and Rex2 took part in the Taste Like Burning show at Rocketown (downtown Nashville). Audroc was the show organizer. Also participating was Zew, Rago, Pako, Smok, Hasp, Tier2 and Veto. There was a really good turn out and some art was sold. It was nice to see Nashville's graffiti scene come together. We plan on doing some more of these group shows in the near future.

Project 10 - Sixth Ave. Skatepark

Concrete Magazine had Audroc and Rex2 (TM) rock a big mural inside Sixth Avenue Skatepark. Audroc (TM) created two poster designs to paint directly on the wall. He reworked the skater design and did a run of 20 posters. We gave Sixth Ave. the posters to give to their friends. Thanks to Sixth Avenue Skatepark and Rocketown for their support of the rebellion.

Trading Card - 1

Rex2 (TM) whipped up these little guys to pass out at clubs. They are the same size as a baseball card. Maybe you got one.

Project 9 - Salvador Dali

Rex2 (TM) created this design of legendary surrealist Salvador Dali. Check the subliminal letters in the background.

Byrd's Eye View of the Rebellion

We got word to All The Rage's Heather Byrd (the person in charge of celebrity news and Nashville's social life) about the rebellion, and she joined the ranks.

Project 8 - Honor Thy Kicks

We teamed up with our homies at Elite (the freshest clothing store in Nashville) to create a poster for the sneaker heads. Rex2 (TM crew) designed and painted this poster. The run of twenty posters was given to Elite to pass on to cool people. We supprised Ramadan, sneaker afficionado and owner of Elite, and he was excited to see our creation.

size: 18" x 24"

Project 7 - Kids Meal

Our favorite DJ, Kids Meal, came by the office and was shocked by Audroc's poster design featuring him. We blessed him with nine one-of-a-kind posters. We also gave him a gang of other WorkForce Rebellion creations. He is officially down for the cause.

Tastes Like Buring

WorkForce Rebellion will be participating in this show. You need to come check this out.

A New Recruit for the Rebellion

Deshun Smith, the talented photographer, dropped by headquarters today. This guy is a perfect of example of what the WorkForce Rebellion is all about.

New Year's Eve - Out on the Town

Audroc gathered up his army of posters and headed out for an adventurous evening. The city was crawling with police so he opted for coffee over liquor. He handed out his New Year's Eve posters while at an event held by King Funk and a quick stop by Sunset Grill. Here's some of the lucky people who got one-of-a-kind posters. Happy 2008 everyone.

Project 5 - Pop Bottles: New Year's Eve

Mr. Audroc created these two gems to give out to cool people on New Year's Eve. He did a version for the guys and a version for the ladies. Maybe he will give you one ... if you're cool and see him out tonight.

Project 4 - Christmas Card

Audroc created this Holiday Card for Concrete magazine and Thoughts Manifested/TM crew. We showed one to our friends at Rocketown and they liked it so much they asked us to do a batch for them.

Project 3 - Label Mini Ramp

This was designed and painted by Audroc. We teamed up with our friends at Label Skate Shop and Concrete Magazine and created a poster design for a mini ramp contest. A total of 30 posters were created. Posters were placed in a few local skateshops and given to the skaters entered in the contest. Check the Audroc and Rex2 (Thoughts Manifested/TM crew) production by the ramp.
