Silly graffiti. It’s the best graffiti there is. If you’re after a career in graffiti art, you’re either 10 years too late to start, or 6 years too early. If you want to make your mark on the world with a marker or a spraypaint can, you’ll want to get silly. Really, really silly, and especially jokish. Make jokes. The smaller you make the tag, the better, just so long as one other person sees it. Or just take a photo of it. Then someone like one of these people will post it. Then millions upon millions of people will see your joke, and you’ve just totally changed the course of history. The entire course of history!

“We artists are indestructible, even in a prison cell or a concentration camp I would be almighty in my own world of art. Even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell.” – Pablo Picasso
