1.1 Graffiti Sketching

Graffiti Sketching is the way to learn to create awesome graffiti, to improve in skill and to develop your own artistic style. You will have to learn how to draw different graffiti styles, proper composition, three-dimensional blocks and how to combine colors. After mastering graffiti sketching you can move on to artistic spraying and street art.

Well, so we made a small, but growing, collection of graffiti drawings and handstyle graffiti drawings to inspire you. Below you will additionally find some links to our step-by-step graffiti tutorials to get started.

2. Handstyles

Handstyles are artistically done graffiti tags. I usually start to create my graffiti sketches by drawing the word I want to write as a handstyle. This gives me hints for connecting the letters and the general composition of the graffiti piece. Thus, I still got enough of steps to rearrange the letters.
