Graff: The Art and Technique of Graffiti

Graff: The Art and Technique of Graffiti by Scape Martinez. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781435127500.

With original colour illustrations, GRAFF provides the basics of creating legally sanctioned graffiti, a style thats been around for many years but has become more popular lately. It discusses roots in vandalism and its separation from those roots to the art form as we know it today - dynamic, over-the-top styles that deliver maximum impact with the same sense of creative risk graffiti writers have always taken on. Readers get real instruction for creating graffiti-style art, from sketching ideas based on design principles, to the basics of developing letter forms, to handling spray paint, to step-by-step demos for different types of compositions.
