Letter Science B

When you're learning graffiti, it’s important to start with basic letter structures. For the letter B, you begin with a strong vertical stem. From there, you add a bowl on the top half and another bowl on the lower half, both connecting back to the stem around the mean line.

These bowls form closed counters, which play a huge role in defining the B’s visual style. Adjusting where these bowls connect can change the entire feel of your graffiti letter. For example:

  • Connecting the bowl higher on the stem creates a more bottom-heavy B and can make some variants of B appear more sturdy

  • Connecting the bowl lower makes the B top-heavy, giving it a potentially more dynamic appearance.

These small tweaks are foundational when you're trying to learn graffiti lettering and bring your own style into the mix.
