The Collingwood Collection (and associated suburbs) part 1 of 3

Aerosol graffiti comes in three basic forms, tags, throw-ups and pieces. Out of the three forms pieces dominate the media. Not enough attention is given to throw-ups and their role in society. Throw-ups are often associated with bombing (the act of putting up work on many surfaces quickly). Throw-ups tend to be concentrated- 
  • around areas that are buffed regularly
  • high profile sites, trackside walls, roadside walls
  • places where tags have accumulated often becoming layered and indecipherable   
  • where there is not enough time to paint a piece

Brighton's Bright style

Arrows are commonly used in graffiti and often can disguise letters. This artist has keep the piece deliberately readable probably to inform other artists BUD's been here.

This is a common Euro style, used by many artists looks easy, but takes skill. Symmetrical letters like U and O are often hard to incorporate into a piece. 
Brighton
Balloon like letters with 3D, good use of white highlights on the letters.
