ARTBOOK EDITION
THE COVER AS CANVAS
100 books. 100 covers. Each one finished by hand by DOES, with its own marks, colours and character.
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
STEP INSIDE THE PROCESS
Before the finished work comes a sketch, a colour choice, a note. These pages hold the preparation behind DOES’ projects.
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
“It is not really a record of a finished method.
It is a record of me working one out.”
- DOES
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.
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.
“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
