This is my first attempt at graffiti, albeit a piece of socially responsible virtual graffiti on the photo of a wall!
The car that I have drawn is in the BMW Museum in Munich, and to my somewhat aged eyes is the absolute classic BMW design – the way that I remember BMW cars looking when I was considerably younger than I am today. The wall on which the car is “drawn” is based on a photo by Waldemar on Unsplash, which has been distorted to match the perspective from which I originally photographed the car.
The car was drawn, and the wall photo distorted, on the drawing app on my iPad. I tried various ways of adding the drawing over the photo in such a way that it looked as if the drawing was actually done on the bricks – I know the result is not perfect but in the end the combination of blending methods that I chose between the car and the wall layers in the drawing app seemed to work well enough.
