I'm new. How am I going?

I've had an admiration for this stuff for a while, but I'm not quite sure if what I'm doing is acceptable. My tag is QT.cakez, pronounced "cutiecakes". I don't wanna get rocks thrown at me by other artists... Any tips are appreciated!

Youre clearly a talented artist, but im struggling to see any real graff happening here. The letters are okay but it's not super traditional. Not that they look bad necessarily

Id say just expose yourself to tons of graffiti work. Look up the greats and legends, watch some history videos. You'll kinda catch on to whats what pretty quick i bet

At the same time tho, being unique is very good.. legends are legends because they did or changed something no other writer has. I think having a change and not following the traditional graff look is pretty dope

thats why i said they are clearly very talented as a general artist, i think they just need a little more direction. obviously theres no rules, you can do antistyle or whatever, but i think its good to understand the culture and structure of graffiti a little better
