Find an old tray or box that can fit loads of the paper most of your graffiti will be on. This will be where you put all of your graffiti work (even if you don’t like them, it is important to keep them to find out how much you have improved later on. ) Don’t think expensive markers will make your drawings better. If you only have some cheap markers, you can still make great graffiti with them.

Learn tags, learn throw ups or quick bubble letters and learn pieces.

Never use someone else’s name. Any name not taken is fair game and don’t paint random or the same stuff every time; be creative, as that how this way of life was started.

Places of worship such as churches, synagogues, mosques and graveyards. This includes shrines, temples and natural areas of worship. Wherever people practice and display their worship and beliefs, do not do graffiti art. Places of learning and education, such as schools, universities and mobile schooling vans. Education is important for raising the standards of humanity and since part of the art of graffiti is to inform, don’t override other people’s reasonable attempts to inform. Moreover, you will likely be caught and shamed for this. Places of residence such as lived-in houses, holiday houses, apartments, etc. Also, do not place graffiti on personal property such as cars, mailboxes, garage doors and the like. It is yet another form of disrespect to graffiti any of these items and gives graffiti a bad name.
