I grew up doing graffiti. Some of the most fun I ever had in my life. Haven't done anything illegal since probably 08. As an adult I really don't have time for court cases (not that I ever got caught... a few chases a couple interrogations) or even know how I would explain to my girl who I live with that I'm leaving at 2 am with a backpack lol.

Weird that you make this thread now though, I was just thinkin today about how I miss it and I need a creative outlet again in 2016. I recently hung out with a couple old friends who are still very active and I'm kinda jealous. Not only did I stop painting, after I got out of school I stopped drawing. I realized that 90% of the time that I came up with new shit was when I was trapped in a boring class. Ima try to sit down and draw some new shit and maybe look up some legal walls or something in 2016.
 
I dabble, i used to be heavy into sketching and poetry when i was younger. Havent really sat down in a looong time and fucked wit either tho.
 
I can't post any pictures of stuff I painted because it was all illegal, but I found some old finished and unfinished sketches, and I never went live with the name INK so this stuff is fine

^^ The top of that is clearly unfinished, but if I remember correctly I think I intended for the bottom right of the K to fade out to a sketch like that (idk, these are all years old)
 
grew up doin graff still know how to bust out letters and what not just dont do it.

as a youngin got put on to game by the older heads and met and became cool with some of the illest to do it
 
I usually duck these threads, but fuck it. I only found one of my art books. I think I have three more. These pictures are from my second book I think, the first two I got in my highschool days. My dad got me my first and I got two more after this....somewhere. Nothing much, just me killing time between class periods.

why u never put nothing out officially?
 
I used to sketch & write poetry. I rage quit the sketching when I was a bit younger because people kept stealing my shit, and haven't picked up the pencil in a while. I want get more into oil painting. I need the discipline to take a class.
 
Only for relaxing and stress-relief purposes since I lack true artistic creativity - and basically true talent lol.

So I really be like:

If only I had the skills bruh...

Word to @BlackCat, who actually has an aptitude for artistic expression and is a legitimately gifted artist.

Yea there's levels. Everyone can make something, but Not everyone is on "real artist" level in terms of senses i.e. how they see things visually in the world around them. I think anyone wanting true talent need to start with developing that first as much as possible. It's not all in the hands or wrist.

And another thing I found it interesting how some people can draw they ass off but never quite do their "own thing" with it coming up with a style of their own. Either that or they simply never make it past "experimental" stage. Or they only do photo-realism. photo- realistic portrait drawings don't do much for me anymore except give the same shock reaction over and over which gets tired after while.
