Graffiti Words Drawings
i am really confused about what to do!?
for my art project i was going to do landscape with a skate ramp with graffiti over it. My art teacher said this was a good idea but here was no room for development. He then went onto say that graffiti as writing is a very weak thing to do in terms of art as it is a bunch of meaningless words in bright volours. He said that if i made the graffiti into pictures then it would het a better mark. I dont get how graffiti can be made into pictures. i thought they were just words. He also directed me to Basquiats work and said that he drew about hings that annoyed him. So basically i have to do graffiti drawings (not words) about things that annoys me being a teenager?
i don't fully understand what i could do though. Does anyone have any ideas about what kind of things i could do and links to graffiti style drawings.
thankyou for any help
Making the graffiti into pictures is simple. It is more along the lines of Street Art. You often find them in subways/underpasses. For example, the ones closest to me have people in various different positions but they are kept to the same colour to show how even though we are all different we should be treated equally. Another one is a huge spider with skates - not sure if it means anything but it has been done with spray cans so is still graffiti but has no words.
Things that annoy a teenager are usually things like:
Bullies
Having to do what they are told (chores e.t.c)
School
Life in general
Friends
Work
I recommend that tomorrow you go throughout your day establishing the various things you would complain about. Even if it's the rubbish canteen dinners at school - you could make so many graffiti drawings to show this. For example, you could draw a food fight in a canteen. And the splattered paint could act as the food being thrown around.
Just use your imagination you have it in you 
TIPS ON HOW TO ASK A QUESTION:
On Yahoo Answers, the shorter the question the better. However, a lot of information is often needed. Which is true here because you wanted to tell us about the project. Next time you ask a question though, make a sharp statement of what your question is and then go into details. Those who have no time to read the full question or are simply ignorant can skip past this but still answer your question.
Good luck with your art project. It sounds really interesting
Hope I've helped

Graffiti Drawings Using MS Paint Done In A Week
Tal R - Paintings and Exhibitions - the Saatchi Gallery
Tal R has a distinctive way of explaining his paintings. "I constantly have this hot-pot boiling and I throw all kinds of material into it," he told an interviewer some time ago. More recently: "I do painting a bit like people make a lunch box." Add the fact that his London solo debut--comprising thirteen bright and unruly mixed-media works, four embroidered cloth banners, and an installation of thirty-two drawings was titled "Lords of Kolbojnik" (the latter word being kibbutz slang for the rubbish left over after a heavy meal), and it's hard not to wonder, sometimes, whether the Israeli-born, Copenhagen-based artist hasn't missed his vocation.Danish artist Tal R creates thickly layered paintings in which solid forms and bright colours evoke associations with the world of child's play. Tal R has been described as a "painter's painter" due to the ease and exuberance of his approach to the medium. In his work the artist establishes vivid, expressive settings within a pictorial framework composed of three zones: a heading used as a palette, a central area in which colour becomes form, and a lower foundation. The format refers to the layout of the screen of early 80s video games. Tal R's paintings suggest a cross between comic books, graffiti and wild children's doodles. His images subtly transform a picture book naiveté into a menacingly archaic and seemingly violent world.
Tal R's Birth of Laughing Chinaman is a pastiche of visual imagery; the construction of this piece is as incongruous as an out of time lip-sync. Tal R's cartoon-ish drawing obeys no discernable logic. The room, in disjointed perspective, becomes a depository for random items of Tal R's invention: 60's furniture, a ship in a bottle, shrunken heads and voodoo sculptures. Revelling in absurdity, Tal R creates this image simply to will its existence. Collaged elements, such as the film projector and spider web, serve to further distort the sense of space, their applied shapes contribute to the jumbled disorder.But only sometimes; and certainly not in front of a work such as Lords of Kolbojnik, 2002-2003, whose collaged slivers of multicolored paper, radiating dizzyingly outward from a central vanishing point, culminate in a monstrous fringe of pasted-on images of robots, mandalas, crystalline cells, and, predominantly, human figures with oversize, homed heads. A weird but characteristic contradiction: The artwork looked occult but felt sweetly innocent, evoking as it did happily unfashionable teenage nights spent marinating in greasy sci-fi and Aleister Crowley and making creepy collages for the hell of it. The same disjunction marked Last Garden, 2002--a cemetery filled with twinkling, colorful, Popsicle-shaped tombstones--and Cusines, 2002-2003, a seemingly self-demonized quintet of figures, their heads swapped for African masks, a Popeye-like face, or a giant tessellated egg. Both of these were painted with charmingly untutored immediacy, as if Tal R wanted simultaneously to channel the lost impetus of early childhood and of an adolescent goth phase (much of his imagery, he has stated, comes from his own past). And both seemed to be powered by the methane produced by king compressed autobiographical waste.
