Graffiti Throw up
by Mr. Noneofyourbusiness

A THROW UP is the next step. No, No, No.. not talking about what you do after you’re mother-in-law’s cooking. I want to touch on another facet of “getting up”, the throw-up. This term can be intermingled with others such as tossies, quickies, throwies etc. A throw-up is traditionally bubble letters “thrown up” on the wall or surface quickly in many locations. A throw-up usually has:

  • a Fill – filled in color, black and white or inverted ..or any other contrasting colors..

  • Hollow a.k.a no fill – this is a hard outline of the bubble letters and also has a 3D shadow to pop off the lettering

  • a Style – traditional bubble to plain lettering or modified bubble letters. Sometimes you can read it sometimes you can’t. The more you see them the more you’ll understand.

  • Throwies are also accompanied by a tag.
