YungGrasshopper Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 It does matter... otherwise you would've defeated the purpose of getting up. You'll be seen for sure. There's sh1t loads of eyes out there that look for graff... just hope those eyes lock on to your ups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foil Fiend Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 To me personally it dont matter if 1 person or 1 million people see it, its more that Ive done it....but I prefer if just 1 writer saw it rather 100 non writers.....but sometimes its suprising the places you find a little tag left by someone....

InnerCityRebel Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 to me the longer your in the game the less you care about people seeing your work. In the beginning everyone wants others to see their work. As you stay in the game i think u start to care less about being seen. At least that is how i feel. I could care less who sees my work if anyone at all. Like someone said if 1 or 100 people see it in the end it doesnt matter. I now paint for me and the enjoyment i get out of it.

cutthroatcommittee Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 at least someone is gonna see your shit, and its always practice & usually doesnt get buffed quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-SENZ- Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 The feeling you get from seeing your name all over the trains is amazing. But its even better when well known writers from your area know who you are. I like getting up in well seen areas but at the same time its good to hit the spots where you know only other writers will see you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Adler Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 its all about who see's it to me. id rather it be someone who understands the "language" than 5,000 ppl that dont. though thats not always the case, thats how i feel generally. sometimes i really like the obscure hits where only another small handful of people may ever see it. to each their own.

Half the thrill of graff is having people see your name. and its also the story of what gets you to that stage where lots of people know your name and respect it. thats where i am aiming to be in the end. I do it for the love too dont get me wrong, theres nothin better for me than going for a paint with some close mates. but that and the thrill is only the half of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckNcover Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 i like to do both..if you do chill spots writers will see them once in a while.. nn you practice.. but heavy trafficiated spots hellaa people see nn thats always good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engels Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 If you are practicing then go ahead and hit up any where that is chill but once you got it down then start to enter the jungle and for fucks sake don't be pussy - Engels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kragtastik Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I love hidden shit. Cant count how many times i've gone to hit something out of the way just to find I was there a few years earlier. At the same time high traffic areas are fun for the fact that everyone will see it... At least until it gets buffed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 i find more satisfaction the higher the profile, as most writers do i would assume. but i mean ive wrote on drift wood before.. i like leaving little messages in real cutty spots like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burningxseason Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 A few others already basically said this, but the way I see it is that you should spend as much time as you can at every spot. If the spot is really hidden, then you should have no problem taking the extra time to fix things. The more time someone spends at a spot, the more I respect them. Also, I think doing doing throws and rollers in hidden/chill spots is pretty whack unless you're just trying to practice them, but that's my two cents.

Heat83 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 i'm not big on fame, or even crushing a city. but to me some of the best spots hardly ever get hit because they arent visable to most people. like sewers,under seats, inside hand dryers, behind bushes. ect i was just wondering your views on visability in graffiti. yea like peices of toliet paper...

ezr Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Personally, I don't like to hit up walls that can be seen by the general public just because I know I'm still pretty crap. Because of that, I get up in tunnels and under bridges and places that are usually require quite a bit of work to get to. That being said, I do enjoy walking far off a trail or far into a tunnel and seeing a well-done piece. It just makes it feel so much more special knowing that you're possibly one of the only people who will ever see it before the weather wears it away or whatever.

toshio nakamura Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Of course it matters if it's seen! How else are you going to get the so desperatly sought after attention from mommy if she doesn't catch you drawing all over the walls and scribbling on her grown up's paperwork? Sheesh, any half retarded 3 year old instinctively knows that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inconspicuous Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I think it's best to just paint shit that other writers can see. Fuck all the people who just call the clean up crews and get your shit buffed. That's why I stick to trains and underneath bridges and stuff. As long as your state writers see you, that's all that should matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as your state writers see you, that's all that should matter. then why are you a writer? to show off your ability to do pieces n shit? i think the only worthwhile part about graffiti is getting noticeable spots and altering the landscape. letters aren't that hard.
