GRAFFITI BLACKBOOK

STEP INSIDE THE PROCESS

From first sketches to colour choices and handwritten notes, discover the preparation behind DOES’ finished work.

ABOUT DOES

Former pro footballer turned internationally known graffiti artist, DOES spent years painting in secret before making art his full-time life. Co-founder of the LoveLetters crew, he’s known for bold colour, clean lines and a lifelong obsession with the letters D-O-E-S.

A NEW CHAPTER

For years this blackbook went everywhere DOES went. Now it’s in print for the first time: an honest look at how his ideas take shape, from first sketch to finished wall.

WHAT’S INSIDE

Sketches, colour studies, photographs and handwritten notes, reproduced from DOES’ original blackbook.

SIX YEARS IN ONE BOOK

From 2017 to 2023 the blackbook travelled with DOES from project to project. Paint tests, taped-in boarding passes, first drafts and to-do lists piled up, and the book became an artwork in its own right.

GRAFFITI BLACKBOOK

“It is not really a record of a finished method.
It is a record of me working one out.”

- DOES

COLOUR STUDIES

Palettes, swatches and paint tests that show how DOES builds the mood and energy of a piece before it reaches the wall.

SKETCHES

From first lines to finished compositions. Watch letterforms develop page by page before they’re scaled up to walls around the world.

PERSONAL NOTES

Handwritten reminders, lists and observations: the small decisions behind big projects.

GRAFFITI BLACKBOOK

Part visual archive, part practical study, this is a rare insight into how a distinct visual language is developed, refined, and sustained over time.

ART ON THE EDGE

Printed in full colours across the page edges, the artwork comes together when the book is closed.

LINKED CONTENT

Selected pages carry QR codes. Scan them to watch the videos and read the stories behind the work.

“That is what makes this blackbook important to me now. Looking through it, I can see the process taking shape: the experiments, the decisions and the beginnings of a way of working that helped me approach larger murals with more confidence and control. It is not really a record of a finished method. It is a record of me working one out.”

- DOES

“The pages within became a place to test things. I experimented with compositions, colour, proportion and different ways of approaching a wall before I started painting. There was no fixed method yet. I was developing one as I went.”

- DOES
