Graffiti at an abandoned New Jersey hospital

3/5 Edited to

... Read moreUrban exploring abandoned places like hospitals reveals a fascinating blend of history and modern street art. During my visits to such locations, especially here in New Jersey, I’ve noticed how graffiti transforms forgotten spaces into canvases of raw expression. The artwork ranges from vibrant murals to simple tags, each telling a story or marking the presence of creative spirits who defy decay. Exploring these abandoned hospitals comes with challenges like ensuring safety and respecting the structure. However, the thrill lies in witnessing how urban artists breathe new life into these eerie halls. Many graffiti pieces here highlight themes of life, death, and hope, which feel particularly poignant against the backdrop of a deserted medical facility. For anyone interested in urban exploration (#urbex) combined with street art (#streetart), these sites are perfect to capture unique photographs and connect with an underground culture. Always remember to follow legal guidelines and prioritize safety since such locations can be hazardous. If you’re passionate about graffiti and abandoned places, these New Jersey hospitals offer an unmatched blend of atmosphere and creative energy, making each exploration deeply memorable.

You ever fray the nib on your bullet marker to get wider lines and more flow? I tried it out on a red Devastator Machine Bullet and really like the results. It definitely burns through ink a bit faster, but the tags look fatter, so it’s worth it in my opinion unless you’re more into little cutty ta

3 Steps for Better Can Control in Graffiti
To improve your can control, there are a few key things you can work on. 1. Distance. The closer you get to the wall—up to a certain point—the cleaner the line. Too far away, the line is fuzzy, too close, the line can start to splatter. 2. Speed. The faster you go, the thinner and sometimes

Fast fills and clean graffiti fades!
At first, I thought the Variator Cap was a bit of a gimmick, but after really using it, I'm finding it really useful. It fills bigger areas quickly when turned all the way up; when all the way down, it is very precise for filling small areas and details. It also works really well for gradients.
