Here is a look at my life as an artist, my philosophy, and the grit behind the work. ## Photos and videos - [Video: In this podcast clip, I talk about how graffiti teaches you to embrace mistakes. Sometimes a slip becomes part of the art, and learning to fix or incorporate those "errors" is what defines you as an artist. It's a flexible and forgiving art form.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/9d891d47-dc71-4e6f-9246-97cbddd1709d) - [Video: Following your heart as an artist isn't easy.

When a line slips or a color bleeds, you do not just walk away, you adapt, you fix, and you make it part of the flow. That is the grit you need, whether you are spraying a canvas in a masterclass or covering a massive building facade in Delhi. Understanding that the process matters as much as the result is what separates a tagger from an artist. Art is a way of life for me. It is not just about the finished mural on a college campus in Delhi or a cafe wall; it is about the late nights, the constant learning, and the hustle. ### Why I Paint My roots go back to Darbhanga, and I carry those memories with me into every project. Whether I am using traditional Devanagari script or modern wildstyle graffiti, the goal is always to create a dialogue. Graffiti is often misunderstood as vandalism, but at its heart, it is about self-expression and reclaiming urban spaces. ### The Creative Process * **Learning from Mistakes:** As I discuss in my podcast clips, I view 'errors' as part of the work. If you mess up a line, you don't quit. You adjust, improvise, and incorporate the slip into the final design. * **Nature and Urban Life:** My work aims to make concrete feel alive. I blend natural elements—birds, trees, and sky—into the cold textures of city walls. * **Technique Matters:** From using low-pressure caps for crisp outlines to handling fat caps for big fills, I teach these skills in my workshops. It is about control and understanding your tool. ### My Philosophy I live by the motto: 'Udaan bharne ke liye pankh nhi, Hausla zaruri hai' (To fly, you do not need wings, you need courage). My work is about giving people the courage to create. When I work with corporate teams or students, I am not just teaching them to paint; I am showing them that they have a story worth telling on a blank wall. It is about that raw, unfiltered rush of self-expression. ## About Yogi Graffiti I am Yogi. I don't just paint walls; I turn blank concrete into stories that reflect where I have been and where I am headed. If you are looking for art that is raw, real, and speaks the language of the streets, let's create something together.
