I learned on my own... but I guess I can't really say that because I was raised on this site so I guess someone was always there to help me.
Pretty much self taught, atleast when I first started. Met a decent writer but only painted with him a few times then he moved, he showed me a few things, but not a whole lot.
Half and half I teach myself but my homie who's ALOT better tells me what shit is good i do and whats not. Im pretty lucky to I think ive progressed alot in m 1st year.
I had a mentor for a couple years...I progressed faster when he taught me, but he was fruity as fuck. http://50mmlosangeles.com/viewPhoto.php?galleryId=30001&artistId=1928&pgnum=1 MARSH
Shit, I kind of wonder. Because someone put me on to it. Dude gave/ gives legit crits. Still paint with him, but I suppose he was the Jedi Master and I was the "Padowan." Long live the King?

ive been learning on my own. i dont know anybody else who writes. so every bit of advice ive gotten is from people that dont write or people here on bs
I started out doing my own shit for a month then found this site, and went on from there. Then I become a toy that was teaching my friends how to get better and then I gave up all together.
self taught. started with stencils of shit, then tagging. moving to a new city soon, so i'll have to start all over. which is going to be interesting!
This kid i used to go to middle school with tought me the basics, but i developed my own style over time.
I always like seeing graffiti on the trains as a kid so I started writing on walls. Pretty much self taught, drawing on paper is good practice.
"Yeezy taught me" lol I actually learned from a mentor/rival and the influence and inspiration of BORF at the time.
learned my handstyle mah self no bite. getting into throwies and bombing and how the game worked had someone tell me what the fuck was going on in certain areas. also needed help with a straight letter and stuff like that. but learned by my self what was going on and practiced. did a lotta shit black book work before i found a good style. REP THE 513 CINCINNATI BRUH. NOEP UP ERY WHERE FUCK EROR bENZ props bro we miss the up
self taught. in a way unfortunately but then again its nice to have developed my own style and i have done my fair share of shit black books but have had a few good sketches and shit. been writing on and off since i was 8. just picked it back up early this year 815
Looking back, I remember similarities between things I drew in Elementary and a couple Blade pieces. As for handstyles, I've always, ALWAYS been making them. However, my heroes are SPUD, NSC#, and DRAKE, fo' sure. Just to name a few. I've never had a lesson from a writer--and there are actually shitloads of them in Lexington. FHC, BTS, KS, TM, PKY, et al. crews, and mine is a pitiful comparison. I have to say that I am my crew's dopest writer--but I AM founder.... No boast, btw, I'm not THAT cold. But all my apprentices are toys in a MAJOR way. I'd like to meet a REAL writer, and make friends some day soon. Actually, that student teacher @ TCHS was a writer.
