Do your own graffiti 'n' stuff. Draw pretty pictures or wicked pieces.

Yeah, that's why you make a private room. It's not hard. ;)

Yeah? Can we see some of your work maybe?

Sekto Springs 07-15-2004 03:37 AM

I s'pose I could drive downtown and take a few snapshots (that is if it hasn't been painted over by cops or other artists). I mainly just draw my name and occasionally write "PWN-what does it mean?". :p

Codek 07-15-2004 03:49 AM

So you don't actually design anything on paper before you go out and do it for real?

Sekto Springs 07-15-2004 03:53 AM

I do. I had lost the original papers a long time ago and I've grown so acustomed to painting the same thing that I don't need them anymore. I guess if I were to find time to do it again, I'd draw a new design.

Killa_47 07-15-2004 04:30 AM

What's your secret for the talent....gimme some pointers.

Sekto Springs 07-15-2004 08:22 AM

Keep at it! Practice on pen and paper a lot, keep the skill going, look at what other artists do. Try and imitate styles and font faces etc...

It's something you pick up after a while. It starts out crap then it gets better. But it's best to start out on paper first, before you move on to bedroom walls, then out on to the street.

But the most important thing, is to look at what the really good guys do. Try and figure out what the best ways to form words are. Take inspiration from the artists you like most. You get the idea.

When I first started, I did it entirely in private. Nobody ever saw my work, because I knew they would just laugh, so I kept it to myself. Gradually, as I got better, I started showing my friends, showing fellow artists, and they gave me tips on how to form words and stuff. Then after a while, I was totally unafraid to show my work publicly.

http://www.graffiti.org/ is a good place to start, look at some work there, get some ideas.

I have a very unique style, it's recognisable anywhere once you've seen it.

Uh, I don't mean to be harsh, but is there much point in telling us this if you don't even show us your work?

No offense SS but it sounds a lot like you're just bragging about your self proclaimed skills, but not backing them up with anything. So come on man lets see what you can do if you're so good! Go to that site and write something, or take photos of your works or whatever.

I mean, why else would you tell us about how good you are? Come on man lets have some content! ;)

This is not art, not graffiti... the graffiti is that you post first, this just a crap (or sg) sentence, the real graffiti is looks like that in your first post...
