Hey Silo,

Your work is dope, keep it up. That first Pen and ink is very elegant- Art Nouveau type shit like someone already said. It reminds me of an artist by the name of Alphonse Mucha, you may have heard of him? I would post if I had a scanner, sorry. To everyone- Keep that shit up.

 

Peas.

yo relm i was wondering if it would be possible to do graffiti with arabic letters i mean put like style and all that comon stuff in em like 3d them and all. If so can you still read it cuz i will be honest im ignorint to that type of writing and to me it mostly looks like one line and i thought if you were to add something to it , it might not say what was intended. if you have any cool ass arabic graff post that shit i have wondered about this a few times and now i can ask someone who knows

EITHER YOU NEED TO COPY AN ESTABLISHED ARABIC STYLE (WHICH WOULD BE LIKE BITING) OR LEARN HOW TO READ AND WRITE ARABIC

....ALL THOSE CONNECTIONS YOU SEE THAT LOOKES LIKE SOME ONE LINER WILDSTYLE IS ACTUALLY CALLIGRAPHY....REGULAR ARABIC LETTERS DONT LOOK LIKE THAT...IT IS A DIFFICULT LANGUAGE TO LEARN....BUT AS FOR YOUR QUESTION....AS LONG AS YOU KNEW THE BASIC FORM OF THE LETTERS AND RULES OF CONNECTIONS YOU COULD ADD AS MUCH STYLE AS YOU WANTED TO IT.....JUST LIKE IN ENGLISH.....THATS WHAT IM WORKING ON RIGHT NOW....

A while back (93-94) I did several studies and wall paintings that were inspired by arabic letters. Actually, one of the paintings was used for the cover of the first While You Were Sleeping issue. But I painted several pieces with that style. And I have a few drawings sitting around with that style as well. What's great about taking another language and using it for writing is that it opens new doors to your thought process of how your letter connections work and their flow. Makes you work differently and try new angles. Though my take on it was to find characters that looked like a J and an O and a K and so on. Then flip them to work them how I wanted. So mine don't really say anything other than Joker...
