Graffiti is an art form that emphasizes style so it comes as no surprise there is plenty of different ways to do a tag. In today's video I want to share 5 different types of graffiti tags that you can try for yourself.

love that you're talking about tags bro. I fw tags way more than most pieces/throws, they're just more interesting to me right now. Most tutorial/discussion online about graf doesn't seem to care much about tags, appreciate it. Gotta cop ur book soon when I'm not broke asf

I really enjoy looking at flare tags, but I think the kind I like the most is just simple letters, with a little bit of style, but not too much going on. I really like it when a tag is readable by the majority of people who don't really take time to read more complex styles.

Chisel tips are my favorite, they have such a style that I love and they are one of the most legible for me. I agree with the drips too certain ones are so cool to look at when they get the drips perfect!

Bro I love drips. It is not just about the look it gives to the letters but the satisfaction I get when feel the ink flowing true the nib forming a great tag. Some people may say that doing drippy tags makes no sense because it is a waste of paint, but I personally think that is better to make a couple of tags that you enjoyed doing radder make a hundred tags that don't even look good because you are so thrifty for the ink. I don't say that if you don't do drippy tags you suck. That's only how I feel about drippy tags, I enjoy a lot the other styles too.

shoot it over in instagram DM or email (jongrim219@gmail.com) . I hope you're correct because if I'm being honest, I think maybe one or two people have done it, and even then they don't do it consistently. Mixing artforms is very hard if you don't have a masterful knowledge of both.

Hey Grim! I have had to restart graffiti TWICE due to being taught by a toy both times. Im getting my allowance which isn’t much, and I’m going to buy your $35 set of books with my $40 allowance . Your tutorials have helped me a lot so far, and I want to extend all of that with the books. Thank!

Oh dude ok ok so check this out, I recommend getting the new book rather than the set if you can only afford 1. The set is more like an introduction, and covers basic techniques. However, to use those techniques effectively you first need to know the basics otherwise those techniques won't look right as your fundamentals will be off. The new book is cheaper as its a single book, and it teaches you all of graffitis fundamentals. Since you've been taught poorly in the past, this book will teach you proper. Use the code welcome10 for 10% off any order. Save as much as you can of that allowance.

If that's up your alley then that book is the way to go. If you're looking to nail down your fundamentals first then definitely the ultimate graffiti guide book is the better option.

Flares and chisel tags are probably my favorite though i never do either of those really. Im a fan of one liners since alot of time im just using some rusto stock caps and i think that style lends itself well to those. Technically my tags arnt one continus line i do pick up the pen once or twice but having letters connect to eachother is just such an easy way to have some nice flow and a bit of style. I have fallen victim to trying to force connection that dont really work with tags before, its almost like a crutch for me, doesnt look like a tag? Well then arbitrarily connect all the letters 😅

Good vid, but gotta put One liners below our handstyles tho. If you can throw a wicket you can already do a oneliner. Wickets takes literal years to learn and master, you can't even go out and toss em up, they stay in your book until their perfect. Hell even learning tall hands is harder than one liners. Wickets & tall hands are all about can control anyway. Not gonna debate Philly vs NY handstyles as i love them both, but as a Philly native, gotta put one liners beneath us personally. They dope, but they're like a stepping stone for us.

Maybe I'm thinking into this too hard, but I feel like calligraphy and graffiti can exist side by side without being calligraffiti. If I wanna hammer out some calligraphy on a handrail with a metal tip white out pen I'm gonna. May not have that graffiti style influence but.. is it still graffiti?

you're 100% right, they certainly can and do. infact, I was kind in the video, but really so few people actually achieve successfully blending the two to the point where it cant even really be called a whole subcategory art form. Honestly, maybe 1 or two people have done it successfully, and even then, not consistently. They certainly can exist beautifully side by side though.

Chisel tips can be any tag with a chisel tip ( including the NY style ), but NY styles are a very specific look and a fundamental method of how they're done. The slight left lean, the spacing, the proportion, the chisel, so on so forth. So in short, I wanted to single out NY styles from other chisel tips because I thought the NY style deserved its own spot
