I found this graffiti on the side of a train car. I thought that the font was really cool looking the way the letters fit together and how the tail o the "R" extends out farther than usual. Also, The colors go so well together because they are complementary. But how they outlined every letter in the lighter green gives it a really interesting layered effect. I also like the red around the letters and how it turns into bubbles. Overall, really cool looking and I wish that I could do that with a can of spray paint.

Yes, one of my favorite parts is also how the letterforms fit together so nicely. (I wish I could learn how to do that in illustrator-especially with our poster project we are working on). Anyways, I enjoy the uniqueness of the colors used. I don't normally see such minty light greens used in graffiti art. Normally the colors are more vivid and richer in their hue.
I really like the subsitution used inside the round forms like the use of an arrow to fill the e.
I love how they incorporated an arrow in the center of the O. It really subtle, but it adds a mystery to the graffiti. It also adds a sense of direction opposite of the direction in which the type is read.

I really like the different letter forms and how tight they made them, and the gradation that was used in this example and the arrow that is included.
this is probably the most legible example of graffiti. i love the simplicity in its colors and design. my favorite part may be the word droids because its random.
I like the gradient effect on the lettering: the color seems to change from a green to blue. You never really can understand what something in graffiti means, but I agree that the negative images of the arrow, spade, and other figures add intrigue. The red outlines, lettering and designs appear to have been added by another artist; perhaps someone else added these marks to comment on the first artist's design.
