Example of Wildstyle graffiti. Heavily fractured, indecipherable letters outlined in black with deep shadows painted black and having occasional highlights of deep pink parallel lines. The letters' interiors are painted in white, very light pink (pigment migration from layer beneath white?), and red-orange. Highlighted areas of the letters use the alternating contrasting colors (light pink on red-orange and red-orange on light pink). Letters are set against a background of bright orange and bright green.
