For anyone wanting to try their hand at some quick and dirty printmaking, try a stencil. It's a cheap, easy way to get your drawing onto any surface: walls, t-shirts, sidewalks and more, the possibilities are seemingly endless and it's fun to do.

Stencil Revolution is a community-based website at which users can join, upload/download original stencil designs, post photos of their stencil results, and more. It's a great place to start for some well-explained how-to's such as how to prepare and print a multi-color stencil.

Download stencil-friendly fonts, browse the thousands of photos in the stencil gallery, and get inspired to give it a shot.

Ooh, I've been intrigued by stenciling ever since discovering the Obey work. I will definitely be checking this out.

Watch out kiddos. It's pretty common for the popo to check out sites like that in search of local graffiti perpetrators.

So, be careful.
