Fafi - Graffiti Artist

^ Wow, I wish that I lived in Australia or that I could travel there because that sounds like a great event.

I've seen people use her work as LJ icons and I'm glad that I found out who the artist is. I think that Fafi's work is very cute and interesting.
 
My avatar is Fafi. I really love her work even though I've never seen it in person :blush: I wonder if she's going to any exhibitions in NY anytime soon? I think she had one in LA a few years ago.
 
Fafi's work is cute I'm much more of a miss van fan though. Does anyone know about Mademoiselle Kat?
 
ahh thank you so much i saw some of her work ages ago and i loved it but enver knew who it was by i forgot her name :flower: i love her distinct cutesy look in her work

Is there a story that goes along with the illustrations? Also, why is her work considered to be 'graffiti' art? Her work seems to be a direct take off on Japanese illustrations and not very inventive. I do like the colors she uses, though.
 
^ I suppose it's because she started painting on walls, although she uses paint + brushes instead of cans.
 
Fafi is lovely. I went to the aforementioned Curvy launch in Sydney as I am one of the artists exhibiting there.

I took a photo of Fafi painting the gallery walls:

mesmeri where can we see your work? What were you showing there?

I did the pink spider one in my avatar. Here's a better pic:

The Curvy exhibition is in Queensland at the moment I think, along with Fafi. So you should go there if that's where you are. Otherwise grab a copy of the Curvy book, plenty of beautiful illustrations and designs.
