On Wednesday April 24th, 2013, I walked into the Blick Art Store at 13th & Chestnut in Philly for a demo that the store was doing on the new Liquitex Spray Paint cans.  They had a big canvas set up with with a note that said "Try Me".  I walked over to the canvas at the same time as a guy named Brett, and we decided to test out the cans by collaborating on a freestyle piece in the middle of the store.   The cans themselves had their pros and cons.  The paint had a fairly pleasant smell and the colors were vibrant and beautiful, but the paint was a little runny and the caps would occasionally spin.  The overall experience was extremely pleasant.  I really enjoyed meeting other talented artists and creating with them!
