Omnigraff: How did you get into writing? Sufer: A friend from high school who had moved to my town wrote and he got me into it. But once I moved to SF I really got into it and was inspired by all the witers who were bombing in the late 90’s in the bay!!

Chill with the lady and like to travel. I also love a good bite to eat. Omnigraff: Something about yourself the average person wouldn’t guess? Sufer: My best friend doesn’t write graffiti, I don’t drink alcohol, and I cant stand tweakers! I own ultrawidemarkers. Yes the old school ones from back in the day. I’m Italian. I went to prison for 2 years on a conspiracy charge. I sold an idea to an outside investor for some good cash! I love when the underdog wins! After every paint mission I smoke a victory blunt!! Omnigraff: So how much did that icey chain of yours, cost you? Sufer: The chain.... It cost me 26k to make... Since gold has gone up its worth just over 30k. But if I were to sell it I could probably only get 15k for it. Haha, words of wisdom, don’t ever buy a chain or diamonds or any stupid shit like that. Invest it something longterm. Trust me!

“If you become one of those writers who start to really get up and people start giving you props, just stay humble Omnigraff: Any crazy chase story? Sufer: YES. For all you writers out there... ALWAYS RUN!!! My best chase stories are with me and and don’t be a dick.” my good friend and brother APEAR. Hollywoood and Highland. It’s a hotspot... We’re just about

done and bam, LAPD creeps with the spot light. We duck and army crawl to where the wall drops down about ten feet (it was at a construction sight). As soon as we hop up, to jump down, they spot us and start running towards us. “FREEZE MUTHERFUCKERS” is what they are yelling at us. The thing is we have to run right towards them to get out of the spot and then we can dip. So we start sprinting right at them and it kind of trips them out. But when we get to the right spot we cut hard to the left, and they are literally 5 feet from us. I don’t know how (adrenaline I’m sure) but we hop the fence all in one motion onto a parked van, from the van onto some metal poles, and then going across some yard I mean fucking ONG BAK style. Shit was crazy, cops throw the flashlight at us hitting APEAR but not fazing him. Then from the poles to another fence and into some apartments. I smash right, APEAR goes left. Then 4 hours later we meet at the car, I drop him back off at spot and he finishes our border! Omnigraff: What do you do to support yourself? Sufer: To support myself I sold an idea. Well me and my best friend in life “THE SKUZY” created a little idea and sold it to an outside investor for a descent price. I then took that money and bought ultrawidemarkers. I am bringing the old 2 finger and 4 finger back and also expanding the line. By the the time you read this interview the website should be up and in action. ULTRAWIDEMARKERS.COM. We will also be doing our own ink which I just finished testing and it’s saucy!!
