Article SummaryX

To draw graffiti using an edgy style, first write any word in a regular font. Then, start with the second letter and use straight lines with sharp angles to enlarge and outline the letter in a somewhat exaggerated way. Next, draw the first letter in an embossed style, connecting it to the second letter. You can then make the rest of the letters with straight lines and sharp angles, connecting each one to the before it. When you've finished your word, trace the outside lines with a pen or marker and erase any unnecessary inside lines. For an example of how to draw graffiti in a ribbon style, keep reading!
