thanks a lot for sharing my KALK-piece. So cool you like it. P.S.: just a little mistake in the description, it´s Kreuz not Kruez. Best greetz from Germany and keep going with such nice videos.

lol thanks dude for the correction, i fixed it for you. also really sick work man, loved the piece if anything i have to thank you for submitting. you really hit that nice sweet spot between having enough detail to be hard to read for new artists in graffiti, and having enough detail to break down to learn from while having clear letters to see once we broke things down. your piece really let us teach this topic !

Cant read them 4 nothing even after there pointed out , love the way it looks though and want to learn how to do it .

9:48 the "e" could be uppercase maybe? idk man i have been reading graffiti for years but i swear some wildstyles give me a headache. if it is an uppercase e it could be really flying under the radar because the middle stick looks more like a detail than anything else but if you look at it that way it seems a cool stylized version of what i like to call the "classic E" in graffiti. idk if i explained myself with these words, i would like to draw some examples but unfortunately youtube doesn't work that way.

maybe, him and i are chatting in DM to help him with his second e, he's expressed how he struggles with the second e and wants to clean that up for the future.

Haha, I could not even read the artwork at 1:50 anymore, on which you said that it's easy to read. I was watching this to learn to read graffitis, but I think I am a hopeless case. 😀

Fr, ive read warik

Dope vid! Glad I finally made it! Mine was COFA. I’ll make sure to keep in mind what u said thanks for the advice. I sometimes do blocky but mainly do Tubey/organic styles wonder what u think of those, I try my best to think of all the fundamentals and I also do fine art. Idk if u remember me but I was also Jaguar in ur twitch streams. Anyways thanks again!

Nice piece man!

Great tutorial for learning how to read especially wild style , and why you can't depict some artists letter structure. Dope Grim.

I've painted 4 about 18 years or so. N everything u say is so on point. Big up from the uk

Outstanding! Thanks so much, man! That helped me a TON!!!! Much appreciated! 👍 I live by some train tracks, where they trains have to slow down as they come into down (plus they cross an busy intersection) ...and I get to see some of the best art every on some of the train cars! Now, I can start breaking down the more wildstyle ones and understanding them! 👍 Also, I think it should be pointed out [credit where it's due]: I made a post on the The Arist Block's last video asking if, maybe, this topic could be covered sometime so people like myself (who are new to the art form) can learn to read the very stylized pieces? Not only did the creator respond with a positive attitude, they suggested they would make a video in the topic. I figured it would be down the line sometime... not the next video! Thanks for being such an amazing creator... not just your content but interacting with your fan base! If I could sub twice, I would! 👍

Lol thanks for the video idea in all honesty, I know this is a topic many struggle with so it's a great vid idea. I appreciate the suggestion, gave us the chance to talk about a unique topic

If u think this is hard try reading black metal band names

I’ve always known the 3 styles as Public, Semi Public and Wild style. There’s Semi Wild Style too if we get technical. Great videos bro.

This tells a lot about wild style, good vid

Awesome video! Good points and reinforces your message about letter structure being key

Ay I'm ealry. I go on redit a lot for graffiti and I see these same mistakes

Man. I love you.

still cant read shit in wildstyles. my braint doesnt process it to letters, especially if they are made up of different patches and colours i sometimes try 10min and can still only guess something. and usually i get 3 of 5 letters right 😂

The video was pretty good... Even after 3 years of nonstop looking at grafitti pieces I still can't read wild style... I get it some times but still my brain doesn't brain looking at wild style

The Artist Block is like the convenience store with all the snacks you ever asked for

thanks for the review bro♥️ hope we can chat about some of the mistakes i’ve made (mine was the BLCK piece). Also random question but what happened to your twitch man? do you not do that anymore?

Bro there's a book store I went to had reading themed graffiti and I had a hard time reading a couple of the letters but I was able to read other letters in th piece

I'm a railfan and I was hoping to be able to read some of the words on the boxcars, but apparently I'm not supposed to. Seems kinda pointless. (Shrug) I guess it's like abstract art. That being said, this is still a well-made video with good narrator.

I swear I spent so much time trying to read this one graffiti… it did not click

My brain is fried

The piece at 3:19 makes little sense to me. I could see the "R" and "A", but the "S" especially seems very broken, I don't see how that's a visible "S". I'm no expert of course, I'm just having a hard time seeing how this follows the rules and some of the others don't.

11:10 i a double decker collab in this style whit the whole piece being the crewname

sweet

Wait I guess I ain't the only one that can't read wild style

lol i think if someone says they can ready ANY and all wild styles then they're full of it lol. we all struggle to read many wild styles just because of how many people use details to cover mistakes

I wanna see you look at some thaki68

Instead of "jest"..."lost" is more like it!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I wonder how many cops are sitting there watching this video 😂😂

I would surmise that artists use wild styles to evade law enforcement, too. J/S

Graffiti is tattoo of building

Exposing wack graff lol.. Alot of these you would not be able to read unless you knew the artist or the tag.. And yeah basically yeah they are wack and on paper they are needing more work and final style..

Why can't the graffiti artist make their art more legible?

2023 and still seeing wild styles and throwies from the 80's....this is the mumble rap equivalent of graff...waste of cans

I unfortunately have to agree, I tend to just ignore wildstyle because there's no point in going all out if I can't read your tag. I'll try to learn as best I can, but I swear these all break the very fundamentals of writing. Legibility is more important than flair.

Most of these look like gibberish? Why do people make graffiti anyway?

It varies a lot why people like graffiti. Where I live, Glasgow, our graffiti culture is awesome. There are tonnes of great artists who all appreciate each other's work. As for the gibberish thing, I'd say it's part of the fun of understanding this whole art. You wouldn't be able to do much if you couldn't experiment. 👍

@@Coastalvibezz 15 years isn't crazy long certainly not short don't get me wrong but it's not long enough to act like it's weight you can throw around to lend credibility to your claim, especially when you say it to someone with more years than you. With that said, with 15 years in graffiti im dissapointed you dont see how silly your comment is because just 1 year in is enough time for anyone to know people normally put a tag, and crew next to their wild styles and any of that is normally easy enough to read to identify the individual. If 1 single writer did 10 wild styles, with tags next to it then that's more than enough for anyone, even a middle schooler to figure out what that person writes.
