Source of Inspiration: White Paint

Most bathroom graffiti is done in black Sharpie, although occasionally you'll find a variety of colorful ink, usually purple, red, or blue. This graffiti, however, is in what appears to be white paint (seriously who brings white paint to a bathroom just to write some poetry?).

The white font is different than the usual dark-colored graffiti, which is why I decided to use light colors for my font colors in this blog. I made the title white so that it stands out against the dark gray background, just like this graffiti. I also use light blue colors for the other fonts, because it also stands out and it adds color.

This poetry is also beautiful. You can check out more of Rupi Kaur's stuff here.

Source of Inspiration: Put Down Your Phone

 

I don't know why someone would write this in a bathroom stall. There's a time and a place for disconnecting from technology and joining the world, but that time is not when your pants are around your ankles. 

But I decided to heed this advice in this stall. I kept my phone in my pocket. I looked around. And I did...something.

And you know what I found? I found that most bathroom stalls are grey and dull. So I used those neutral colors in my blog. The background is grey, just like the bathroom stalls. There are a few other colors in my template: blue and white and black, which are usually the colors of the graffiti. I wanted the blog to resemble the place where you shit, without it looking shitty. Thank you public bathrooms for continuing to be a source of inspiration to me.
