Green Graffiti
We're all aware that graffiti can be very detrimental to an area often leading to a lack of respect for the local community spaces, like parks and local businesses as well as also increasing the possibility of further incidents of crime; there are also some methods of 'graffiti' that are being used for beneficial purposes.
Green graffiti is a new method of street advertising that involves the cleaning of dirt in the shape of a message or template, leaving a clean and clear advertising message underneath. Not only is the message itself important but so is the manner in which the message is portrayed, by cleaning dirt and grime and writing a green message it indicates that clean is green.
This method of graffiti advertising is affordable, green and sustainable and does not damage the surfaces it is displayed on; in fact it actually cleans and improves them. And when the message needs to be removed it is just a case of cleaning the surrounding area with a high powered jet washer.
Many companies offer graffiti cleaning for incidents of spray paint graffiti that can commonly be seen around industrial and urban areas. This new method of 'graffiti' highlights the benefits of graffiti in portraying a positive message that is easily removed, rather than looking unsightly and negatively affecting the area as traditional graffiti does.
Graffiti removal is a growing cost to councils across the UK, with the incidents of graffiti increasing each year as well as a higher recurrence rate of graffiti in the same area over and over. This is why many graffiti and street cleaning companies also offer anti graffiti coatings, a preventative measure that can be put into place once a surface has been cleaned, or prior to any incidents of graffiti, to ensure that in future it is a lot easier to clean, saving man time and also money; whilst also ensuring that local areas look warm and inviting, instead of somewhat threatening and uncared for.
This constant innovation is not only IN the uses of graffiti, such as the green advertising mentioned above and in graffiti as a form of industrial art, but it is also in the methods of removing it or preventing it. Graffiti removal ensures that a clear and concise message is being portrayed to those who vandalise areas with spray paint graffiti. This is helping to make positive steps to reduce the rate of vandalism and graffiti related crimes across the UK, allowing residents and businesses to enjoy their areas and take pride in the appearance of the place where they live or work.
How to Write the Graffiti Alphabet Style in Pencil
Today we will feature a tutorial on how to draw graffiti alphabet. It's not easy to start it, especially in making sketches on a paper that usually use a pencil. Indeed, now many online applications that make it easier for someone to make graffiti, including one who was not an expert.
Graffiti is a style of drawing art and letters that garners most of its popularity in the inner cities, but where once graffiti was found spray painted on buildings by vandals, the art form now enjoys a margin of respect in the art world and is considered a genre of its own. Graffiti's new place in the art world has given rise to street art as a legitimate artistic genre as well. (by http://guardian-graffiti-alphabet.blogspot.com)
Things You'll Need:
* Pencil (2H, 9B)
* Color pencils
* Reference guide
* Sketch paper
1. Determine the style of graffiti alphabet you want to create. Some graffiti alphabet styles include bubble, wavy and jagged. Each of these styles have specific characteristics. To make a consistent graffiti alphabet, it's important to choose one style and stay with it. Mixing styles will make your alphabet chaotic. Bubble, wavy and jagged are the oldest, most widely recognized styles. Bubble is a good beginning choice because the letters are round and fat.
2. Start with a hard tipped pencil, such as 3H or 2H. This will allow you to draw the outline of your letters lighter. Use a full sketch sheet for each letter. Start with A and work your way through the alphabet. For bubble letters, place your pencil on the paper wherever you feel comfortable and draw the letters in as few movements as possible, lifting your pencil away from the paper only when absolutely necessary to avoid crossing your parts of your letters over one another. The key is to overdraw your letters, almost in caricature style, so they look well-rounded and fat. For the bubble style, avoid using in hard, straight lines. Keep a reference chart handy until you have fully mastered the style (see Resources).
3. Draw each letter's first phase and set it aside until you have drawn each letter. Go back to your first letter with a softer pencil. A 9B is extremely soft and will give you darker output. The object is to add shading and depth to your graffiti letters by coloring the edges of each letter to fatten them up with color. Graffiti letters need a bit of a 3D effect to make them work. After you've added this dimension, go over the lighter lines with your 9B to bring them out, then add a few lines on the face of each letter to give it surface texture.
4. Use color pencils to bring your letters to life. Pastels and hot neon colors work best with graffiti. Don't be afraid to mix the colors on each letter, letting the colors overlap and blend to create odd color effects. Part of the fun of graffiti is the bright colors, so get creative with the blending.
