i just hit up everything in sight and got noticed by other heads i went out every single day for about three months and got up every where in my city then bigger cats started asking questions and basically the word got to my friend who wrote and i got introduced to a bad ass crew so fuck going out just to meet kids go out and bomb every thing get your name out there and all the other heads will come to you. also try to stay off throwing wack shit out there its got to be decent and respectable and also when you go out on your bombing spree make sure you show respect to the other writers doin bigger things than you dont go over their shit thats a bad idea and will only attract the wrong type of attention. throw a shout out to some writers when you do a throw up or something people will find you
anybod that lives in peninusla of sf bay area. the only ppl that tag at my school, are the kids they bus in from the ghetto
meetin other writers is easy when your still in highschool.i met probably 3 or 4 there.plus another 2 in colorado.
used to be in a "click" but not really, we all hung out with sur13's and all could draw and would tag... dont know any non gang members that write. but that was back in highschool, i've out grown that immature lifestyle.
nahhhh vandal squad watches that place with a fuckin microscope and they have insanely high prices... pearl paint, no doubt on that mother fucker
I want to meet people but I don't want to get ratted out, so I'm gonna give it a bit before I gain trust in people, right now it seems like everyones after me, which i know is stupid but it can only change with time
yeah its tru, u gotta watch out for snitches no doubt, any sketchy people that starts comin around i dont trust
fuck that noise man. just go out, put ur heart into ur work and the people u want to meet will come to you.
Who doent like big crews.......I bet you would have more cunts in your crew if people wanted to role with ya.
i pretty much fucked up my whole "secret identity". everybody knows im into graffiti and shit, somehow EVERYBODY knows my name.... people at school are like "hey when did you put those slaps up by the drug store, theyre tight" even though im pretty sure my slaps suck, they just think theyre sweet cause they dont know shit about graff... and if pisses me off because i already got a handstyle down specifically for my name, and i got a decent throw, and a half full black book, so i dont wanna change my name... what happens when i paint something? if somebody sais i did it, can i just be like you have no proof its merely a name on a wall....?
i say chill out for a few months and stick to your books. once the heat dies down and people forget, then start rocking some walls, starting with chill trackside spots is a good idea. or just change ur name. yeah it sucks but it will only make u better if u force urself to try new letters and whatnot.
i have tried new letters, and i have pretty decent ones, i just cant think of a good name that i like... either that or the ones i want are taken. i already have tons of slaps ith my name on em....like at least 500...
but dont you think there's something to be said about learning from ppl in the physical sense as opposed to just reading from the internet or watching youtube vids.
i wish i had someone to watch my back. i would just hang out at the underpass to find writers, but alot of reeeeeeeeealy sketchy people come through there.
A lot less drama. Keeping graffiti as unsocial as possible. Sometimes its necessary to have someone with ya just for support. The reason I got into art was because I hated typical people. I like to destroy property to take out my anger and I love art so it works well. If you can find a person for codependency instead of a friendly relationship you can get a really proficient duet.
I live in a city where alot of ppeople write so its not veryn hard to find people whom write. normally at ah house party or something like tht.
