Saderone Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Back when I was a little kid we used to write on the park in sharpies and shit, ya know? Typical little kid stuff. We started seeing tags and I didn't really know what they were. Then I'd see the same scrib in a few places (It was "KNOWN" I believe) and I started to grasp that it was a signiature. From there over the next 2 years or so I saw it and did little shit but never actually did "graffiti" as it could be considered. Eventually this kid moved into the hood and he mentioned he was a "tagger". We started gathering paint and markers and shit, and it's just been an upward road from there. (Kid who came along is now in some crew with no respect for anyone else in the city, talks mad shit behind backs and keeps a friendly smile up front). Just been going with it ever since, met a few people along the way and then met more, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirdrailuk Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Always used to go to skateparks and sit watching NT, WAR and other painting sick productions every weekend. Liked how each week something new would go up or even more frequently than that. Then a guy came to my school who was into writing, taught me what was what n it went from there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SXWND Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 My friend Bubba died and I'd always leave shit around the skatepark and places we'd hang out and smoke with a Sharpie when I was in sixth grade, then I sort of realized what I was doing and progressed, moving forward ever since. I don't do as much as I should but I really started because I wanted people to know that my friend was someone that would be missed more than most. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_R_O_N Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 A graffiti master shamed my father in a graffiti battle of epic proportions, his wildstyle technique was sadly, far more superior;his bits and do-dads transcended merely doodling...soon after my father killed himself. I now must enact my revenge...*cue kabuki music and sakura petals falling down* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massgraff Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 i always noticed the tunnels were bombed out when i would visit ny as a kid. i swear i was probably the only kid that looked out the window the whole ride on the train. a decade later i take up writing and can read that it's dudes like JA and deck wgf. i was always the one to draw peoples names for them in class so yeah it was bound to happen.
