beatupjettapainter Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 "i dont think if you have seen SEENs photos makes you beeing a better writers learnig the history of graff doesnt make you a better writer.thats a poor excuse " -This mentality is the reason why there are so many dodoo writers these days... don't waste your time, go find another hobby, just like near 99% of the people who post in here.....art with an urban twist, but has no soul, or substance.....show your girlfriend that new oversprayed stencil and you want to be down...

Quoted post yo senaz nice to see this up again, if you dont know who this is its vanillasqueeze from BS.........quick question, when i do black backrounds usually i end up freestyling a piece onto it because its harder then hell to see any other material..... what do you use?

The-WiseOne Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 ok just how i asked above, here is a more explanitory description. i need some back up on my work ok for all you canvas freaks out there.... i love dark backrounds, and im painting a pure black backround right now.... but thats just it, its just a backround and how do i put a forground on it when i cant see the lines im sketchin???....that means i pretty much just freestyle it.... which is what i always end up doing.... so my question is is there any type of material i can use to sketch on a dark backround but still be able to erase my mistakes?... hit me up if you know..

heavyLox Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 solution is to draw what you want on paper, then cover the back od the paper with a bright colored hard pastel ( best to cover just where the lines are one the bac as be make sense if you dont) then place paer on canvas and trace the lines on lightly, peak around on to the canvas every so often to make sure your applying enough presure. or you can draw a hard pastel with a lil dry brush and or maybe a damp rag you can erase.

Yellow Feets Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Originally posted by heavyLox@Apr 12 2005, 01:22 PM SO this isnt canvas, its on paper. I like paper better than canvas; i think papers more absorbent and i like that. i like paper that will eat what you put on it. I also am very interested in the process of creating pictures. Much of the time i enjoy unfinished works more than finished; the unfinished gives me insight into the artist process and i feel like i get a better idea about who or what the artist is. So in the vein I started documenting the stages of drawing and paintings i do ( graff too when i can get away with it, [read legal eagle shit]). This particular set of drawings was done after i had the displeasure of hear DJ spooky give a talk (last fall). What i took from that talk was that there was still a lot of power in the remix (a really broad definition, Duchamp to HIP-hop) and that DJ spooky is an IDIOT; which i wont get into here. Suffice it to say I tried to combine the elements of a drawing and continue to reuse and change them with in the same drawing. The final version of this was an interactive Macromedia Director file, that in the end had sound and allowed the viewer/user to remix the final state of the drawing with all of the other states of the drawing so they could make there own composition form mine. In the end there were 144(changeable bits)*38 (stages of the drawing). So what you see here is more of just a build test animating the drawings process and changes over time. _________________________________________________________________________________ <embed src="http://www.heavylox.com/webshow/TEST.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#636656" width="657" height="545" name="TEST" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /> _________________________________________________________________________________ I added, play pause, and stop buttons to aid in viewing.

Damn... i didn't think your sketches were all that complicating. like 9 different outlines and shit. wow. pencil, pen, marker, watercolor, and acrylics? i dont think i have the patience to do that all in one day. pffffft!!@!

seeking Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 when judging advice, you have to view the advisor as well as their words. 'the wise one' paints hack ass cardboard canvases with shitty letters and played out techniques. of course he thinks a piece would look good on it, because it's what he would do. after he did it, he'd post a picture and we'd tell him to go back to the lab, he'd get mad, say we're assholes and the world would keep on turning. personally, i really dont even think that thing is worthy of really being a 'canvas' it's a background at best. i mean, no offense, but its some labels glued down with a mist of paint over it. theres really nothing to that. no composition, no thought, just glue sticks and thumbs. theres nothing wrong with that i guess, but theres also nothing 'right'. seeks/sorry, im being a dick today, sue me.
