Wildstyle George Floyd Tributes
Three tribute pieces for George Floyd.
The first is a flower with a tear-shaped middle, and four petals. The center has rings of colors: red, black, green, orange, and white. The petals have the same color scheme, with white accents. Below the flower, in the same spray-paint, is "George Floyd."
The next piece is a blue wildstyle rendering of "George." Purple paint splotches and green lines swirl throughout the word, which sits on a pink outlined purple background. Signed by :Cybin:.
The third piece is a throw-up of orange text shaded with blue. Yellow lining accents the edges of the word, "Floyd." It sits on a pink splatter background and has white sparkles all over. Green bubbles surround the piece.
