Cow Graffity

Alphabet Graffiti Sketches

Graffiti is not making things easy, even for those who are born with talent images. Like many other art forms, no one can was done without a lot of exercise. The easiest way is to create graffiti sketches first.

For those just getting started to plunge into the world of graffiti, it helps sharpen skills in the first sketchbook. Sketching is a very important both in preparation for making graffiti, as well as training activities. Piece is usually nicer if we depart from sketching. In the sketch, we can easily see the piece as a whole (different from the piece on the wall that requires us to move away from the wall to see it fully).

Sketching it does not cost anything and can do in any situation, for example at the time of ride the bus, at a boring lecture hours, at home, anywhere. The most important thing is to always bring paper, pencil, eraser and sharpener wherever we are. Better yet if we have a sketchbook for drawing we can organized.

Of course we can not forever stuck in the sketchbook, sooner or later we must plunge into the wall to see what we have poured the sketch.

Collaborating with a group of amazing New Zealand artists, Amnesty is proud to bring you an incredible event and the opportunity to bid on the pieces. The exhibition features works from renowned artists such as Nigel Brown, Otis Frizell, Misery, TrustMe from Cut Collective, Cinzah Merkens, Tanya Blong and many more.

All proceeds go towards ensuring Amnesty International Aotearoa New Zealand can continue its work defending and promoting human rights both worldwide, in our region and here in New Zealand.

The theme ‘ARTicle 19’ stems directly from the UN’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights article, ‘Everyone has the right to freedom of expression’. Proceeds raised from Amnesty’s exhibition will go to priority campaigns like Myanmar where the government regularly violates the human rights of peaceful critics in a myriad of ways, including torture, imprisonment and death.

Amnesty invites you to bid on the artwork in the week leading up to the event, or come along on the night to view and bid in person.

The event will be held 7 July 2010 at Shed 10 from 7-10pm.

Shed 10 is located at 90 Wellesley St
