The Five Tips From Kiko-Fish
The Five Tips From Kiko-Fish
1. It sounds kinda cheesey, but, believe in yourself! you aint gonna get shit done if you spend your whole time doubting yourself.
2. Talk to people, generally people can be pretty receptive, the more people you talk to, the more likely you are to get comissions, exhibitons, etc.
3. Always carry the following things on you: Sketchbook (theyre mad useful, just for sketchin people on the bus or whatever), a pencil/pen (helps the sketchbook idea work), a digital camera (theyre small, light, cheap(ish), easy, and theyre great for takin LOADS of photos with, no need to worry about developing costs) a posca ( everyone likes a good doodle every now an again), stickers (cant have too many up), your keys (gettin locked out is no fun kids).
4. Experiment. Youll never develop if you dont!
5. Go to Barcelona, its warm, cheap, beautiful, the people are great, and the street art is phenomenal.
6. Get your work up whenever, wherever possible. And not just in the usual "cool" areas. get the shitty areas which dont see stencils, pastes and stickers on a daily basis. the locals will appreciate it much more. (hopefully)
