Kings destory toys

It may come as a surprise but graffiti does have boundaries. Many writers have places where they'd never paint. This could be private property, graves, cars etc. Some people however have no code of conduct at all. If that's your style then rock it, but learn to deal with the consequences. The artist/s in question of painting a space which is "socially not acceptable" receive some negative energy from the community, but are often most strongly condemned by the graffiti community as a whole.  
Some artists paint for quantity others paint for quality and some paint with elements of both. This photo however shows a very limited understanding of graffiti culture. Why repetitively tag the one space especially when your tag is simple and basic.

Bubble Throw-up Styles

A throw-up or throwie is the artists pseudonym or sometimes the first and last letter of their name. They often have one outline colour and one fill colour. Sometimes they don't have any fill. Throw-ups are designed to cover large and generally high profile spaces quickly and rapidly without being caught.
