I’m always going on about graffiti and street art in Brazil (Brasil), VERDE is painting out of Sao Paulo and his art is pretty varied and interesting. I love the abstract circles he does, mixed in with classic graff style. He kindly answered a few questions for WG… Always with the questions…

WG - When did you start painting, how did you start?

VERDE – When I was a child my father taught me to draw, that’s why I love art. As I grew up I learned to skate, listen to hardcore music, and sort of live the underground life where graffiti was very popular; Then in 2006 I started to work and paint on the walls and streets.

WG - What influences your art?

VERDE – I’m pretty sure my art is a mixture of many things, making my own style.

I really like 3D, realism, letters, old school, cartoons, abstract and many more, that I can mix with my creations and paints.

 WG - Where did the round circles style come from?
 
VERDE – I used to paint cartoons, letters.. but nowadays I am painting abstracts things, something like free raffs.. putting my mind far way to aprimorate my draws and my tecnics as I like.
 
WG - What artists do you like at the moment?
VERDE – I enjoy OsGemeos, Finok, Insane, Ciro Shu, Zezão.
 
WG - What are your favourite sneakers?
 
VERDE – Vans.. I’m really an addict! LOL
 
WG - What sort of graffiti are you into? Do you like the wildstyle type more, or old school fat bubble lettering?

VERDE – I believe that the graffiti is kind of an expression of the art, and art is defined as the expression of human creative skill and imagination.

For me its clear as the arrangement of social class and the place that you are with other elements.
Particularly I prefer the WildStyle, working with the letters, but the fat bubble lettering is really nice to paint when you wanna show up a rebel atittude.

WG - How long does it take you to do a large VERDE piece?
 
VERDE – Working with the bomb style It took me around five minutes, but it was something with 2 meters.

And if I have a bigger wall, I can do it in an hour.. 
 
WG - Do you paint with a crew or on your own, or both?
 
VERDE – Sometimes I paint with a friend, Gui (you made an interview with him too), or at the Graffiter Meeting and sometimes alone, it is more a kind of “motivation-thing” and one of us likes to express an individual feeling.

WG - If you could only paint with 2 colours for the rest of your life, what colours would you choose?

 VERDE – I really like the color Green (translating to portuguese is gonna be my name.. VERDE), and Black.

Have a look at VERDE’s Flickr, it’s sick, and here is a video of VERDE painting, great vid!

Thanks very much to VERDE for taking the time to answer my questions, go check our more VERDE here!
