Street-cool visual artist-cum-nightlife guru, Andre Saraiva, whose
life dovetails into graffiti subculture, chic jet-setting, and the
fashion world, presents an autobiographical visual diary of sorts,
a revealing window into the worlds he inhabits. Chances are that
while you ve been strolling through the streets of Paris, London,
New York, or Los Angeles, you may have caught a glimpse of Saraiva
s signature graffiti of Mr. A on a random street wall. Or you may
have seen him in the Banksy film, Exit Through the Gift Shop; spied
him in the front rows of the Paris Fashion Week shows; or seen him
at one of his many chic nightclubs. Graffiti Life is a
never-before-seen look at the artist s many spheres through which
he effortlessly moves: street culture, contemporary art, graphic
design, photography, fashion, and nightlife. This visual journey is
an interactive and striking object itself, with a vibrant pink
cloth cover, Saraiva s distinctive handwriting in foil, and seven
pop-ups he designed. It follows Saraiva s art/life trajectory, and
includes his Instagram-worthy tags on the streets of Paris;
countless silk-screened posters; paintings and sculpture; creative
collaborations with Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Colette, and more.
This fun, simple little book introduces you to floral doodling
through patterns and motifs to keep your imagination flowing.
Flowers, leaves, vines, and more are a delight to draw, with their
many shapes and colors providing never-ending variations. The
no-pressure doodling approach gives you a relaxing creative
activity that you can easily customize as your own. Create
unlimited styles, both on paper and to decorate whatever objects
you'd like. With how-tos, prompt pages, coloring pages, and space
to practice, the high-quality art paper is ready for your pens,
paints, and journaling. This book also includes pretty cutouts like
gift tags, writing paper, and bookmarks to use yourself and share
with friends.
