Is there anything weird you do when getting comfortable in a spot? I mean, when I'm gonna do a fill or something, I like to hide my backpack (in case I need to make a quick get away and come back for it) , open up a bag of Middleswarth BBQ chips and drink a pepsi. Depending on the spot, I'll put on a bit of music on very low volume, never headphones though. Usually some Karate or American Football.
I dont have a routine but sometimes it may help to think like "nibody is gonna stop me from getting this spot!" Mh idk!
I drink a mountain dew on the way to the spot, but I only drink fiji water while I'm actually painting. I burn a bundle of sage to chase away any evil spirits, and draw a circle of salt on the ground to around the spot to funnel in the surrounding creative energies. I always put coins on the track if I'm painting a train car, and I smoke some cherry tobacco out of my pipe because I love me grand pappy. I make sure to double tie my boot laces before I start painting, and then I sit and focus my chakras for a few minutes. I shake my cans an even number of times, except for the fourth can in my bag, which gets shaken seven times, no more no less. If I'm tagging I put on a playlist of chill folk rock, if I'm piecing, I usually have a stereo playing some backpack rap, and if I'm out to get throws, I listen to click click boom on repeat. If the police haven't chased me out of the spot by the time I'm done doing all of this super fucking gay shit, then I start painting.
i dont paint graffiti but when i do i masterbate during and after i paint, it helps release my demons and sometimes if im lucky the splatter on the wall makes for a nice fill bringing a saucer of warmed up milk is nice too sometimes
Take off my pants and hang them up. Fart three times while turning 180 degrees. I stopped drinking Fiji water. Fiji water is expensive, and while they're bottling that shit up for rich people, the native people in the surrounding areas have dirty, polluted water to drink and the company does little to contribute to them or their community. Look it up.
I usually bring my kitten in my bag so that when I'm done my fill I can sacrifice it and do my outline in blood with my eyes rolled back in a trance state gleaning astral planes and praying to the dark lord
