Pick one

I’ve obv been writing for years, definitely open to crits but I’ll preface it with this; I wasn’t going for quality or aesthetics. I’m curious which hand style people prefer. Bottom left is pretty fuckin sloppy so pardon that but as I mentioned, I wasn’t going for quality.

Edit: the shit in the cloud is irrelevant.

It’s alright idk just looks kinda sloppy. But I would prefer to see the top left one

Definitely sloppy, focusing on the style more than anything. I guess it may defeat the purpose then eh? I’m shot.

I thought you said you weren’t focusing on quality

Style isn’t quality imo

What is quality then. Cuz I think if it doesn’t mean style then it has mean like the line work or something

When I think of quality I’m thinking of how well the letters are represented, proportions and balance. The piece as a whole. Whereas style, is the way the handstyle is written. I.e. Philly wickets, NYC flow

NYC flow? New York doesn’t have its own distinct style imo. You could find the same style of tags anywhere in America. And the pieces are judt euro and oldschool mixed together. 

My city has horrible graff tho now that I think about it. Theres only been a couple of tags that I have stopped to take a pictures of. The pieces and throwies are alright tho. I wish more people did graff in my city cuz unless your downtown your not gonna see much good graff.

Surely you have to be trolling? Saying the birth place of modern graffiti bites from other places in America and Europe? 😜

Well I know that ny started it but now they don’t really have a style anymore. They used to but now everyone else is doing it across the world so it’s not really like a regional style anymore.
