So over the past two months I’ve been painting these Panels of VQ’s Vectors. That got the boys and I over at ClickPop talking about how it was time to teach you how to create them too. It’s pretty simple, all you’ll need is: Read the rest of this entry »
This week is the third installment of Painting Panels!!! (I just made that name up, yea, I know, I’m pretty clever…I should start a TV show) What we’ve got for you is a spray painted vector character of Sean with some of VQ’s famed speech bubbles. To be honest, the boss man (VQ) came up with all the characters too, I just painted them…
Maybe you should go check out weare.clickpopmedia.com to see the last two weeks along with this one. A Painted Panel Tri-Vecta! Well, that’s all the painting I did today. Have a lovely day, peace out, the Lord bless you.

So the boss-man VQ and I decided to have some fun painting today. Check it out!
This canvas was made possible by: some old spray paint given to us, and VQ digging into his deep, deep, very deep character repertoire!
A couple of weeks ago I posted a painting that I had begun. Last night I decided to get back to work on it. The triptych (pronounced:[trip-tik] NOUN Fine Arts. a set of three panels or compartments side by side, bearing pictures, carvings, or the like.) was my very hip wife’s idea.
The technique you’re gonna watch (and hopefully learn) today is called “cutting.” It’s an indispensable tool in any graffiti writers toolbox. The man behind the video this fine day is a guest to our lovely site, he’s also the man responsible for that killer piece at the header.
His tag is FASM (it stands for Faith Alone Saved Me) and he’s a long time member of the very international Gospel Graffiti Crew. You can check out more of his work at www.gospelgraffiti.com or www.FASM.net.
And now for some schooling…

Hope you learned a little something new… God bless you all and have a lovely day.

A few friends have asked how to sketch graffiti. I started sketching graffiti in Junior High School to keep occupied (I usually sat in the back of the class). So here is a quick overview on how I sketch graffiti when wanting to pass some time; the reason I mention that is to let you know that this is a more time consuming approach. Also, this type of sketching is for when you don’t have anything but a pen and a “whatever type” of paper (printer paper, napkin, math assignment, etc.) handy. I’ll only be using a ball point pen and and my sketch book(Sometimes I feel that using color in a sketch is a waste of time; markers, pastels and colored pencils never look as good as paint…this is just my opinion).
Now as a point, you should know this is how I do it. This is NOT the way I would sketch if you’re looking to develop a “line by line” lettering structure for your graffiti. I used to just draw any word that came to mind, in the past few years I’ve been sketching books of the Bible and reference verses. This one will be a quick sketch of Hosea 10:v12.
