While we made a visit to the blog of Montana Colors Australia to check out the video of Sid Tapia we found a super interesting interview… Bagl, one of the most important names of the new generation of writers in Sydney, and his style stands out in freshness of the local style.
A overdose of skills and all terrain graffiti is what he offers, but we can clearly see that his preferred surface is metal. Heres a selection of his comments together with images, and if you want to read the whole article just visit the blog of Montana Colors Australia. Enjoy!
Originally I spelt it ‘BAIGLES’ and it was derived from the doughnut looking pastry thing. After a couple pieces I dropped a couple letters for ease and eventually ended up being just ‘Bagl’. I also write ‘Blunt’ on occasions just to switch it up.
Im not too fussed about being the biggest name in the game, I’m just going to do what I feel like doing, and hopefully people enjoy the work as much as I did doing it.
I’ve gone from really simple big bubbly letters to a chunky sort of public style with big connections and add-ons and everything in between. (…) I found one of my biggest influences on my style was my good friend and crew member ‘Jebs’ HKL KGB.
I feel if you really want to stay on top of this game you have to live, eat, shit and breathe it, otherwise you’ll barely stay afloat, and theres a lot of dudes that do that. Much respect to those out there that have dedicated there entire lives to this. I feel I’m just trying to keep up, but I’ll always have mad love for it.
My ideal kit would be MTN Hardcores for fills, background and infills for its quick coverage and gloss finish. and MTN 94 for outline, highlights, lo-lights and aura for its low pressure and crisp lines. This might sound like an MTN ad but it really is my choice of paint. Top colour range, always reliable and smells great.
