This randomly came through my feed. I'd just add that this guy seems like a toy. Handstyle is wack af, and the first and only rule is "Get up, not caught". This is a video essay by somebody that likes graffiti and has a sloppy blackbook, but isn't hopping fences.

@@8028H lol what? If there's some toy shit on a good corner, you tag that with TOY before it gets a next day flick or a buff. It's how they learn. "Only toys call others toys" honestly sounds like a toy line. Maybe you just grew up in some place different, but where I'm from there's no such thing as good manners if you're actually getting up.

I used to do a lot of Tagging, USPS Stickers (we called them slap-tags back in the day), Blocks, Bubbles & Throw Up's. I also used to do another style that maybe it was a bit niche, but common enough to say it's one you missed. Maybe it's not as common anymore or maybe people just haven't seen abandoned it all together...*Stencils!!* (multi-layered stencils were really dope too) I would carry a backpack full of stencils made of cardboard. If I felt it was good enough to keep I would remake it from those hard/flexible plastic dividers, not like that flimsy colored film sheets today but the ones that had the rough texture on one side, and the bigger sheets from art supply stores called Mylar. Those were easy to cut and literally made for stencils. Also a big shout out to home made drippy ass 'mops'! For those times you were broke but still needed to get down lol.

For me the roller ended up being my final stage.the way it allows size height and using found materials most times mixing buckets throw out at construction sites i feel like its how graff makes its full circle back to the days of poor kids finding a can of spray paint and killing a day or night seeing how bold they can get on where they use it.. also the garden sprayer is kinda like the evolution of the fire extinguisher.. there cheap can be filled with paint and surprisingly the nozzel tip can go thin or large and hollow like a astro cap... to be completley honest most teenagers can find a roller some buckets of paint amd a garden sprayer in there garage or friends garages and little do they know they have what it takes to make a curb to roof size tag anywhere all it takes is the heart to step up to the plate and decide its there time now.... and they should cuz at 35 my sprint has become a mild jog so by having to new guys come out and play maybe youll be saving some old dude like me from catching a cop tackle at 4am hahahha

Thank you, I have always loved Graffiti. I would always see it on the trains when I was in the back of the car going into Toronto with my parents. I was a very young girl when I first had a chance to observe Graffiti, and thinking back now I know I have always admired it. So brave of these men and women to paint these fantastic works of art. I was told that that it was wrong and that they were defacing property illegally. I looked at it as art. Art done so quickly and so skilled that I was really taken by it. Every time we drove in to Toronto I would look forward to seeing the new designs, and tried to distinguish what the letters meant. You have given me a little bit of insight into how I can read them next time. They are masterpieces. I hated seeing half done pieces. This meant either the person had to run away really quickly or was caught by the cops. The worst part was these were moving canvases and the artist probably never got the chance to finish. Plus I would rather look at these works of art then the Gray paint that The city would use to cover them up.

I was having some work done on my car at Muffler Town once. There was a rock band in the neighborhood called China White. They made up a stencil of their band logo and painted it all over north Seattle. The guys in the shop had speculated the meaning of the tag on their building and hadn't heard of the band. I told them the meaning and suggested to them that if they wanted to paint "Muffler Town" on their house I could show them where it was.

[@dontIookforme]

Dude, I’m a beginner, I was so confused on what “throw up” and “tag” was

[@ElioRose]

This is a great explanation, there's some older stuff that he missed but it might just not be as common anymore. I used to use Mops and Stencils back in the day. Stencils are really kind of niche, even back in the early 90's, but Mops were very common. A Mop is a home made device where you take any bottle with, ink or paint in it, and the 'mop' was a home made tip; sponge, old shirt, literal mop strings tied into knots, really anything stuffed into the end of the bottle that would allow the liquid to absorb/squeeze into it and when you tag it would be super drippy or you could do it semi dry and get a nice fade effect.

[@hprine5112]

`I do some graffiti and I admit I need some work. When I started doing graffiti, I started out drawing my name in letters with ends that have straight lines. Then I decided to make the ends round rather than straight, then my first graffiti word was smile, and then it kicked off from there. It started from a bored moment in 7th grade science class. I started doing hollow, I learned how to tag a year later. Just to let everyone know. I believe graffiti is one of the most amazing art styles in the world as long as it's done appropriately. Graffiti can give words even more meaning and can put on any impression you want to put out. Keep drawing, and never give up, you will get better as long as you keep trying.

Trip out. I heard the story from the dude himself in a graffiti video. I might be wrong but I think it was one of the "war" videos.

[@juanzepeda4693]

Random story but it has happened. Smart way not to get caught, which is the point, right?

[@c.w.9615]

@@juanzepeda4693 This is a cool topic that I have thought about. Graffiti in ancient Greece, Rome, and Egypt was an engraving on a public wall without permission. The traditions of modern graffiti evolved as a creative criminal act. The styles of graffiti are directly affected by it being illegal. The risk the writer takes, and the speed in which they work, determines the style and the persona of the writer. The artist who is not on site during the production of the graffiti cannot take credit as the writer of the graffiti. Is it Graffiti? I think it looks a lot like graffiti, but it's more of a "street art" concept. If it looks good, I say keep up the good work.

Sticker Graffiti is also favored by Chaos Mages, as it can be easily filled with little intriguing mantras meant to trigger independent thought in the observer for their 'guerilla ontology'. It allows them to focus on making as detailed a piece as they feel required to make, possibly even hiding a sigil in it, before actually "distributing" it.
