Now it turns out this bank is in PA after all, but that doesnt confirm that the person who did the tag is from PA, it simply makes it extremely likely.

Painting graffiti on the highway can be a rush for those with the courage to take the risk. One of the most thrilling parts of highway spots is the rush as you approach the wall. You can hear each car flying past you and you know that they’re going far too fast to stop so suddenly, however, there’s always a chance. A chance one person might slam on their breaks, and it’s for this reason the people in today’s video keep their guard up as they paint.

Maybe you like the look of the letter, maybe the letter just seems fun to you, whatever the reason is, if you like it, circle it.

Our first submission was an awesome wall done by Magen, and he really did a great job but a few things stood out to me. One of the more notable topics was his extensions, and they stood out for a few reasons.

Graffiti at its core is all about “getting up”, getting your name out in the public view for all to see. It’s about fame, reputation, and notoriety, and we do this by putting our names on walls. Most graffiti artists paint under the. cover of night. However, some paint during the day because they simply don’t care, love the rush, and are willing to take the risk to get their name up.

Wild styles are the most stylistic version of graffiti pieces, and the key here is that wild styles have no limit to how technical they can be.
