The two funky yet classic graffiti alphabets created by experienced graffiti artist Mega gives you the opportunity to learn a basic graffiti style, as well as a more advanced wild style.

Each of the alphabet’s 26 letters has its own spread where the building blocks of the letter are carefully displayed next to the specified space for you to practice, along with illustrations of how the letters can be used in different words and names.

In addition to the letters, you will find examples of characteristic elements used in graffiti such as 3D or shades to add depth to the letters, or arrows, stars, bubbles, highlights and shines to make the piece stand out.

Graffiti for Beginners is the fundamental guide for you to learn how to master the alphabet with style and finesse, letter by letter, until you are able to put together complicated words and messages, adding the coloring of your own choice.

Learning graffiti has never been easier or more fun! Graffiti for Beginners suits all ages and is a great tool for advertisers, home stylers, school teachers, kids and creative adults alike.

For 15 years the northern suburb of Craigie provided a place for graffiti writers to paint without fear of prosecution or persecution. For the first time in the suburbs history an attempt to document the stories, pieces and individuals that made the Craigie Walls an important place in West Australian graffiti culture has been made. Craigie Tales is a publication about a suburb, a site and a mural arts program regulated by the painters that took ownership of three local High School tennis court walls.

With insight, narratives and images collected from the painters that made Craigie a home to a subculture, Craigie Tales offers an experience in to (sub)urban folklore and transmits moments and movements that are privy to few. Providing an essential understanding to a code of conduct that would last for over a decade Craigie Tales celebrates the act of writing and a site that would define Perth's painting culture.

Introducing the new issue of the Stylefile Blackbook Sessions series, there is once again an update from the most diverse sketchbooks and desks in the scene. From simple studies to detailed full-pagers, whether analogue or digital, everything is included on 160 pages. For some, sketches are merely a necessity and a means to an end, while for others, they are an independent discipline in the field of graffiti. What all of them have in common, however, is that you have to deal intensively with the process of sketching in order to develop your own style. How wide the range of approaches is can be studied in this book. It provides exciting insights into the approaches of the most diverse types of writers. Insights that would remain hidden from most people even in the age of social media.

Sketches in graffiti have always existed. A white sheet of paper and a marker have been the starting point of every good style for years. In the beginning, sketches were only done with normal pens, but soon professional layout markers were part of the writer‘s basic equipment. This was then the measure of all things for decades, but in recent years, new possibilities have helped this genre take another relevant leap: With acrylic markers, it is now finally possible to work with opaque colors and no longer have to use only white paper as a background. But the leap from analogue to digital has also been made by now in the field of sketching in graffiti: Tools like Procreate have recently formed a completely new basis for a whole generation of writers to create works of art with letters. You can notice that for many writers, sketching has established itself over the years as a discipline of its own within the field of graffiti. Due to the expanded technical possibilities, the question of when a work can still be declared a sketch and where a canvas begins can no longer be answered with a clear distinction. For another part of the scene, however, sketches are still a necessity and a means to an end: to further develop one‘s own style or to have something for the next production on the wall or train. What all of them have in common, is that you have to deal intensively with the process of sketching. How wide the range of approaches is can be studied in this book. It provides exciting insights into the approaches of the most diverse types of writers. Insights that would remain hidden to most, even in the age of social media, and that we can now show to a large audience!

The Story of Peril & Paris

Australian Hip Hop & Graffiti Art 1984+

Erupting out of an electric 80s subculture, Peril & Paris claimed their rightful throne as kings of the Australian Hip Hop melting pot.

B-boys to the max, ambassadors of style, they were part of it all - the breakdancing, the music, the art - but most notably built their names as Melbourne's premier graffiti duo, producing countless masterpieces that cemented their legendary status.

Peril & Paris commanded the spotlight, yet deep underground they operated through secret identities, going twice as hard and doing more than most. Their supreme dedication to the game earned them an unshakeable Claim 2 Fame.

With a rich personal archive of over 600 images, Claim 2 Fame is the captivating story of Peril & Paris, a steadfast partnership and Australian Hip Hop & Graffiti Art legacy that inspired a generation in its wake.
