JUSTONE Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Stop cheating! Depending on what you are trying to do or who you are, there are many different step-by-steps. The whole point is to develop something that works for you. Get a big cardboard box, rip bits off and start painting! Be prepared to create some horrors that even the dustbin men are offended by and go with what feels fun. If you are mixing media just think of the image and break it down into layers.

justinvisible Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Yeah, the best thing you can do, is just do it. The thing I like most about painting is finding out what will happen if I try something new. Sometimes good, sometimes bad, but at least you're learning.

seeking Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 the thing i like most about painting canvases is pushing down on the cap just slightly, so it makes a bunch of sweet sputtering spray marks. i also like spraying the paint into the cap, then 'flinging' the paint at the canvas. sometimes ill do this with several colors in a criss cross pattern.

seeking Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 fuck yes i know. i also sometimes hold the can right at the top edge of the canvas, then i spray and spray and spray until it drips down almost the whole thing. i really like this 'look'. cap it off with a sweet tag and it's a wrap.

seeking Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 if you're gonna take the time to bite zyphers letters, make 2 stencils (one for the letters, one for the 3d), overspray a 7 color fill and a 5 color background, you might as well take the time to find a sharpie that isn't half dead to do the outline with. just saying.

The optick one Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I Cee niggas got jokes....:lol: :lol: Thats cool though. :cool: Zephyr was deffinetly a great influence on me though.. Those are Classic RTW, TKP, CIA, TOP style letters. NYC graff culture. I am just preserving Anyways, I take that as a high compliment if that looks like Zephyrs. That means I am doing my JOB right.:cool: thats original way of doing letters.. Thats some old shiit anyways. Why you hating for though???:o :rolleyes: I am here adding on. Dont sweat the techniques.:cool: :scrambled: BTW, that Liz canvas which yall so hyped about, Thats just some experimental shit. The first is on the canvas side, the second is on a hard cover book.

There is also no need to use blackbooks which are too much like hard work. just learn on canvasses and let your homies put them on their walls. werd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
