Ya I'd still paint. There's a legal wall near me that's great if you want to spend alot of time and just do really quality work, and most dope pieces stay up for a while bc people respect the amount of time spent on them
Writing isn't about breaking laws, at least it isn't to me. Its about going out with your crew, having an adventure, finding the perfect spot, and putting your name there to show yourself and others you were there. If it was legal I would still go out and paint.
I'd prolly still do it but like not as recklessly i'd actually take the time to do tasteful masterpieces then although i admit a lot of the charm comes from the thrill of doing something "illegal"
nope, it would kill the scene, and the streets would be taken over by toy ass motherfuckers trying to be banksy and shit, can you imagine that? walking down the street and knowing that just by ratio of toys to experienced writers alone there would be no way in hell you could combat that shit, FUCK THAT! the illegality helps keep the game progressive cos the majority of toys cant handle the thought of a cop snatchin em up.
i would, id be happy as hell for a lil while bc no pig would chase ur ass. but after a while ppl gunna say u started writing wen tht law came out n all these toys not knowin bout the culture would just trash it for all the real writers
Being older now, with a job and a family to support, I can't write illegally (very much). Its about the art and getting it seen. Whether it is legal or illegal, its still about the art and recognition. The threat of negative consequences for my family is something I can't risk these days. If it were just me, i'd get up every night of the week, but I can't afford to get caught. So, hell yeah. I'd get up every chance I got if it were legal and I'd even pay pretty serious money for a license if that was an option.
At this point in the game I couldn't even stop if I wanted too its such an addiction and the other reason is I would write on everything all day prob cost me so much more money though in paint haha plus be a lot less toys out their since their would be no risk and people would have way more time to get up and learn their style.... But in the end yea I would and be a lot easier to see what's going on plus you would finish everything you start!!!!
hell no dude, i write because im not one of those normal pussy's who's too scared to do something illegal (just one of the reasons) graffiti is meant to be illegal, fuck any bitch ass ***** that disagree.
yea i would, but it would have lost alot of it's power in the street so it wouldnt be as attractive to me. it would probably just become a hobby.
what a bizarre rhetorical question to ask. no i would not, or maybe yes i would? imagine a world where everyone has a hand style and every surface is caked with paint. i'd probably say no, i would not contribute to that phenomenon. i kind of like how things are.
Also , if you still wanted that rush of it being illegal , dont buy a licence and you can have it back haha.
