As I was examining different types of fonts I started to think about how letters in general have been manipulated since they were created. I was interested in how artists change lettering to suit their style. The appearence of a font lies in the viewers perception of the lettering. With Graffiti lettering sometimes lettering is manipulated or morphed so much that viewers become uninterested because it is unlegible. On the other hand some people enjoy the puzzling together or figuring out these complex letters which graffiti artists call "Wild Style" lettering.
