man, in my city writers are gettin picked off left and write cuz they either

a) write all over their school (i've seen this shit on school desks. no joke)

 

b) stencil on memorials (dudes 19 and facin 5 years in prison for some REAL weak stencils) (AND he also had a shirt on with his stencil sprayed on it)

 

or c) bein rats. its amazing how much of a "small world" it is when everyone with a fuckin marker starts writin and rattin.

 

 

most of this shit is just common sense. i just started writin myself and already knew most of it.

^^Common sense. Practice, pratice. And don't try to be one of those STUPID toys that always try some crazy ass piecing on paper. Keep shit simple, simple round and/or block letters. Keep doing them over and over and over time, creativity will come.

 

alright, thanks, quick question tho, why do people say toys shouldnt do arrows because they do them 'wrong' whats a 'wrong' arrow and whats a 'right' one??:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

Well, I'm a toy as well but I guess since I guess I sort of know wussup, its just that WE lack the creativity to make that shit work. Over time, with experience and lots of practice, we'll be able to see what works and what doesn't and what looks good and what doesn't, but I think too many toys take criticism too hard, especially her in L.A. If someone says, "your shit is whack" they respond with "you're a hater" type of shit. I'm not one to deny I'm toy and if someone says my work is, then I try to see whats off, what is wrong, and just practice more and become more consistent.

fucking good idea for a thread...

i shouldnt even have to say this, but:

 

- Don't go over people's shit. who the fuck wants to see wack shit over something worthwhile, also, just because it is "old" or whatever doesnt make it okay to go over. the "don't go over it" rule especially applies here.

 

This is all the rage in atlanta. Beautiful pieces and burners getting covered up with tags from people just bombing, the hierarchy doesn't exist around here. It's really disgusting.
