Lets Get Alphabet in Graffiti
Letters
How To Tag Your Art or
Graffito
Do you know
the Alphabet in Graffiti
Letters. Remember when we were in
school this was the beginning of learning
how to write words or sketch letters on
paper to communicate. Artcrimes is no
different ladies and gentlmen.
The only slight difference is
that we don't place the work on paper for
the teachers to grade, we place the tags
on subway trains or walls for entire
cities or countries to see.
Yes! I said countries,
especially places like Quebec Canada. You
see bombing is not just centralized in
the Bronx, New York anymore it's world
wide thanks to digital cameras and the
Internet.
I love the many different styles
of of Grafiti. It all fits in the entire
HipHop culture which I also
love.
So who really knows how to tag
your art, what I mean is is there a mentor
or someone who is taking on
students? Tagging is not just something you can go
to the local library and read about and
then hit up your local city walls tagging
and bombing everything in site. I think
there is some kind of street rule that
goes along with this. think of this kind
of street art as an underground gallery
of extremely talented artist and
undercover drawers.
Now with that being said the
question is how can one become part of
this elite movement moving all over the
world with nap sacks and book bags filled
with spray paint and many customized
aerosol spraycans? Even though crews are
well organized and make historical truths
like the history of
gangs they all seem to be non-violent.
They only thing that can be considered
bad is the artcrime itself. But is that
really bad. I don't think so. To me I
actually would like to see some type of
world contest or reality show on this
type of art. Hell they have all kind of
shows now on MTV, VH1 and BET, why not
put together a show about some
underground bombing and taging.
YEAH!
Wild style seems to be a
favorite amongst most crews and to my
understanding it is also the hardest to
produce. Looking at this picture I
agree.
Now I also want to say this. I
have been to California plenty of times
and this time while I was there I took a
nice trip to Sonoma County to go and
check out Petaluma. This is a crazy
hot Graffiti restaurant. Yup! There are
people out here who are doing big things
regarding a tagger. Peep it out if you
ever get a chance to hang out in
Cali.
To sum this article up I will
say that I totally respect the
individuals who create murals on rough
and rugged terrains like trains or walls.
It doesn't matter if it's cold or hot
they are dedicated to thier craft and are
out to handle that business. Go get
ladies and gents.
