35- Ale, 1982

Here’s a little quickie for a slow sunny Monday morning. This particular outline came very early in my career, before the bubble gum pieces. Even before my style began developing itself. You can see that as i was combining every and any element i can get my hands on, straight and geometrics with curvy and swoopy arrows and stems, you can definitely say I wasn’t afraid to throw down the kitchen sink. That lack of fear of trying anything is an important, maybe the most, element to where my style is today. If there is any lesson I can share with anyone it’s be fearless, try anything and after much practice your own style will begin to set you apart from your peers. This outline isn’t great by any standards but at the time for me was very experimental and I have always been experimental. Pushing the envelope of style is the core of graffiti, if you’re not pushing yours just another of many faces in the crowd.

I really like your writing style, its not generic and extremely long and tedious like a lot of blog posts I read, you get to the point and I really enjoy reading your articles!
