A few good resources

by TheGone84

I found a few good ebooks and tutorials that relate to photographing your art with or without models. Graffiti has come a long way over the years and its now even possible to make a living off of our art. Where such a thing may be frowned upon. I say that those doing the frowning aren’t good enough or just haven’t figured it out yet. Don’t get me wrong, to do it for money alone is pretty shitty, but at the same time, it never hurts to make a few bucks doing what you enjoy. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Enough ranting. here are the links:

Gutterdesign

by TheGone84

Hello again! Just dropping a quick line about what’s been going on of late. As most know, I have jumped into the webhosting and digital design arena. Needless to say, it doesnt really have much to do with writing graffiti or any of the fine arts. For that reason, I have separated the two and have opened gutterdesign.info as the graphic design compliment to gutterhost.com which is my hosting company. I set up Gutterhost to cater specifically to the art and music communities by offering cheap webhosting that is also reliable. I intend to move all of my sites there and look forward to jumping back into the scene now that I am home from Iraq. All of my graffiti work and fine art ventures will still be showcased on this site so don’t despair. In addition to all of this, I am also working on a few video tutorials on graffiti art and general design principles for those who are looking to learn about these things. As always, I am busy 90 percent of the time while still only completing 10 percent of my projects! Hopefully I will come to some happy medium in the near future. Until then, thank God for whisky LOL.
