radio




I found this sticker on a Bajaj scooter at the HEB in Hancock Center, on my way to teaching Tipsy Tech. Whenever I take a picture of someone's ride, I'm always afraid they're going to sneak up on me and pop a cap in my bitch ass. This time I made it out safely.

This stickerloo reads "radio" and is a fairly competent effort. I would give it an A-. What keeps this piece from scoring higher is the technique on the 'i'. It is not acceptable form to simply lop the top off of an L and move it into place for the dot over the i. It is inconsistent with the Stickerloo font. You have to make sure the top of the i has the same rounded edges as the bottom. For the dot, it needs to be evenly circular, not irregularly square. There are also some horizontal alignment problems at the beginning of the piece that a straight edge or a steadier hand might have prevented. Otherwise this is a solid work; I would like to see how the artist fares trying out longer pieces.
