Graffiti generally employs various types of graffiti alphabets instead of pictures. The alphabets are
also not really different from the standard alphabets. It somehow comprises
slightly different lines and shapes. Making up different and artful types of graffiti alphabets can be
really difficult especially for starter artists.
Nonetheless, it is not
impossible for composing your own styles and types of graffiti alphabets. Here are some basic styles you can
either use for inspiration or develop into new types based on your creativity.
The most common type
of graffiti alphabets is tag graffiti. Tags simply involve alphabet shapes
mostly at all times. It is also simple and appropriate for graffiti artists who
just started doing the art. Besides, this type typically uses one color only.
Yet, the single color and common shape of alphabets can still represent extravagant
work of graffiti making.
The graffiti artists usually exaggerate more on using one
color for sharpening the alphabets lines and shapes than using different colors
which might precisely lessen the artful taste due to wrong combinations. The
next is bubble style which is very distinctive. The shapes used here are
commonly rounded and bloated in order to represent bubbles.
Lastly, it is wild type
of graffiti alphabets which also are known as intricate form of graffiti.
The style is rather more complicated than the standard tags, and so done only
by advanced or professional graffiti artists. It also incorporate 3D dimension
with interwoven and overlapping letters. The colors used are usually varied
depending the artists’ taste and design of graffiti to make. This
way, the first two styles are very appropriate for those trying to make up or
develop their own types of graffiti
alphabets. Both can be combined as well.
However, the last type of graffiti alphabets, in spite of its difficulty, is still possible to do.
It is good for improving your skill later once you have experienced in making
the most basic ones. So, what is there making you wait? Have a try and make up
your creation.
