Tag
style is the most basic and quickest form of graffiti writing.
It is usually a representation of the artists name and is used
as a way to gain recognition by being seen in a lot of places
and as a signiture for larger pieces.

Throw-Up
This
style is another quick method of graffiti writing. It is done
by making a layer of paint in one color and a quick outline of
the letters in another.

Blockbuster
Blockbuster
letters are evenly spaced and not too difficult to read. They
are just what the name implies, block letters. This style is often
done on large areas such as whole train cars.
|
Wild
Style
This
style is much more complex than any of the previously mentioned.
The letters are very blended and highly decorated. This type of
writing can be very difficult to decipher. |
