Graffiti(Questions)

[Tupac-Soulja]

Well I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I have a question. I'm going to start doing graffiti and I was wondering if anyone on the board is a graffiti artist and mind giving me any helpful tips that can help me get started, thanks.

Be sure to run like the wind and dump the cans when you see the cops pull up!

Lay down your outline with chalk before you start using paint :thumb:

I used to when I was younger.

Find a spot to practice. Or open out some big boxes and practice on them.

Just go under a bridge or something, nice places to practice... Walls of old factories. And the classic : wagons.

If you are just starting, don't think about it, just take a part of a word, like 3-4 letters, and just graff it. or draw simple things, so you find what your style is.

Graffing is not always about talent, its about finidng your style. I know graffers who suck at drawing and they still manage to do some awesome graffs non the less.

I tag a lot in europe though, but I did a few graphs.
