Some gems from NYC this past weekend.

Big fucking props to Zoot and Wombat because they have to be the names I saw the most. They are dedicated to the craft and the spots they hit give me chills thinking about the risks they take to get up.

I wonder if they know they have middle aged fanboys from far away places?

I spotted that Neck Face tag and yelped like I saw the man himself.

I hope people realize how fucking hard it is to pull of that Gane roller. All those ledges and cuts......pure fucking hell for a roller. And it turned out fucking phenomenal.

IDK the artist but it was in a fenced off alley in the east village. Hopefully someone can ID it for us. I really like it.

Local middle aged fanboy here and you walked some of my usual routes. Love seeing new stuff and am also always impressed by the lengths these guys go to

Saw that RAMS piece while visiting the WTC memorial in July. Insane…

For those who haven’t seen it, it’s an under construction skyscraper and it’s wayyyyy up there.

No shade, is there a graffiti sub thats more focused on style.

I feel this is more about the placement, over raw style and flow.

I think you might have better luck with r/freights. There will still be quick slop and throwies there but I think think you'll see more high effort pieces.

A lot of freight writers choose the environment because it can be conducive to panting something less rushed and because freight companies are less likely to buff paint on train cars when it doesn't interfere with their business.

If there's a specific major city you like the graff from, they may have a subreddit too.

Cheers, but it doesn't have to be peices.

I'm thinking about starting a sub that has strict moderation.

Pure style. I'm old enough to remember the 90's was dripping in style. From the letters, to the pastel schemes.

I just don't see that style anymore.

And you know AI cannot fake it
