      Good luck but heads up: don't be a goofball and get arrested. They dont like over 18s turning up on vandalism charges and they'll be more than happy to throw the book at you if you do. It's not like school shenanigans any more after 18, which is why you rarely see anyone over 18 doing it unless they're pro.

    The #1 best way to get good at graff is to imitate or "bite" other styles until you feel comfortable using the methods you've learned to create your own styles. Sitting here watching a video explain some technical bullshit won't make you good. Practicing from examples is the fastest and easiest way to learn.

      Everyone will be good or suck at certain letters, just keep practicing and looking at others pieces for inspiration as well as to see how they've done it! iv'e always struggles with "s" too but slowly getting there haha

    These wild styles I like but my local scene is run by art academy writers so I get no props for typical graffiti. Can you do one about how to do real hipster, euro, avant-garde anti style graffiti? You know like Saeio (rip) or people like that.
