Graffiti was appearing again in a big way, especially along the freeways. Wanting to preserve the visual energy and history of this work before it was painted over, he grabbed his camera and started documenting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At first, he photographed graffiti on city streets. But over time he found himself drawn to trains. Growing up in small town Illinois, Philip\u2019s only access to graffiti culture came from magazines that featured work from New York, Germany, and Australia. Train yards offered the same magic. A living gallery full of color, movement, and changing letter forms that traveled across the entire country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He continued taking photos and sharing them online, but the more he shot, the more he felt pulled toward print. Social media is fast and fleeting. Hardcopy lasts. He still had his old graffiti magazines from the nineties and knew how powerful it felt to hold artwork in your hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/graf1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15789\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/graf1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/graf1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/graf1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/graf1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/graf1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/graf1-1170x780.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, he decided to create his own magazine.
