The top one I call the ‘Pixie’ stencil. It came from a previous stencil I worked up, which originally came from an image of a small child I found in a National Geographic magazine.
The second is my nephew, Fischer. I put it on a shirt for him, and he wears it.
The third is this amazing face on a woman of native Mexican heritage. She had the coolest lines. I’ve used it both on clothing and canvases, hence the leftover pink spray paint.

About Benjamin Allen Ellis
Some phoenix mythologies talk of the soul's hierarchy in terms of birds. The eagle being our pinnacle, the phoenix right below, constantly burning and dying and rebirthing in order to find itself born eagle.
Since 2000, and my first public art show, I've used the Phoenix as a rallying cry for myself to take hold of what I want and keep 'rebirthing' until I get it. After eight years, it was time to consciously move on up. Hey - I'm goin' eagle.
Ben, I love the Pixie stencil. It gives me such rich internal imagery.
