Training Pad

Back in the early 90’s my homie Stash Two created the now legendary “Training Pad”. It was a simple but brilliant idea that has been copied by wannabes countless times since. Using Stash’s original subway blueprint I try to knock out a quick piece at least once a month, just for the fun of it. Silver Sharpies are great for these blueprints because just like silver spray paint they go on super opaque. Plus silver goes on fast, and it’s my philosophy that fast is important when doing graffiti—even if the police aren’t chasing you.
