Graffiti Blackbook

DOES (Joos van Barneveld) is a Dutch artist known for his highly controlled, precise approach to graffiti lettering. Originally trained as a professional footballer, he came through the youth academy and first team at Fortuna Sittard before transitioning fully into art. Working across sketchbooks, large-scale murals, and studio pieces, his practice focuses on the construction of letters through structure, colour, and repetition. His work is recognised for balancing clarity and energy, combining the raw language of graffiti with a refined, design-led sensibility. Over the past two decades, DOES has built an international reputation, exhibiting globally and developing a distinctive visual language that moves between street culture and contemporary art.
