Ricter - The A’s to Our Q’s:
Wooster: How did
you get started in creating art for the street?
/>Ricter: i always loved to put up stickers…so when i grew
older i just took it to the next step…oh and i met joey from eden…he got me
addicted to pasting…i am a pasteaholic
Wooster:
Why hands praying?
Ricter: i picked ricter because i
wanted to have a name that ment something… ricter in german means ruler…. so
i run the praying hands poster beacuse god is the number one ruler… and
everyone prays.. its good for you… we also run some posters of BOB DYLAN, that
we designed…and we just run posters of people who are rule, and rulers back in
the day.
Wooster: What other street artists do you
most admire and why?
Ricter: joey attobellie….he
is from edenct.com he is amazing… he just
sets up everything really nice…and a great underground artist… i hope me and
him will work together more..
Wooster: What’s your
favorite city, neighborhood, or block, to post and/or to see street art?

Ricter: haight street in san fran was really fun…so
many wood walls and low billboards…thats probably my fav…but las vegas was
fun cause it was a challange…so many cops and so many hard to reach
places…but nothing better then home…
Wooster:
What inspires you now?
Ricter: other peoples work,
the kids at eden are a huge influence on me and my friends…they push us to go
bigger and creat better art…..also people like shep…i wouldent mind making
