oooh pretty Grafitti

it is pretty much in everybody's enviroment, soo
what are your thoughts, and post any cool pictures or drawings

check, example of highly specialised business:BomB ShelTer still havent been but it is revered, peculiar too

so what do you ppl think?
get the carp out of my neighborhood you carp vandal
i think it's legal until you tag/sticker/stencil/paint on private property of any kind (privately owned walls cars etc).

I've got sticker designs, but I'm moving towards stencil. I'm planning to get a respirator soon.
I always thought this stuff was cool but it's not really my style.
Here's a question... is it still considered Grafitti if it's requested and legally placed somewhere?
A lot of grafitti - the kind done by teenagers who just like to tag carp - looks bloody awful. But, there's a really famous grafitti artist in Britain called Banksy. No one knows exactly who he is, but he has done some amazing pieces.

You've posted this site somewhere before.

This one is (obviously) my favorite: http://www.banksy.co.uk/outdoors/images/...ppers3.jpg

lol
i agree personal private property should be out of the question.
but spinsta what do you mean? if the owner commissions graffiti?

bansky is crazy cool. but what I don't understand is how the big stencils he puts up come out so perfect, he uses quite a few colours, and..its big.
i guess its comparable to a piece but still boggles me for now.

I loooove graffiti art. It makes me so happy when the artists also become successful in other fields, like the amazing Fafi.

Quote:Performing a whois lookup on Banksy's website reveals that the registrant is Stephen Lazarides, a photographer. It has been suggested that Lazarides is Banksy also going under the name of gHOSTbOY. However Lazarides is actually Banksy's manager and Banksy has gone to great lengths to conceal his identity.

He constantly pops up in the newspapers.

I think you should get a real job and stop vandalizing other people's property (if thats what you do).

But even still Grafitti is truly an art that I really do like
I love the designs but hate the concept. A pity that once you take graffiti and make it legalized and controlled, it's no longer graffiti but graffiti-styled art. Still, the style is really awesome.
haha i have a full time job, and while i'd like to paint burners imma toy.
but man I wouldn't vandelise a real persons property per say, a company or corporation is fair game tho
I just did about 5 pages of tags with a blue BIC permanent marker. I used fine point, and I'm surprised with using it. I can control which line is thick or which line is thin.

I'm gonna use the best tag I've made and use it for printing size.

I have a bit of a headache, but I think I'm gonna be okay. :O
yo turtles If you could scan some of that, it would be fresh
i got som shiz too...f.. I'll post some old carp for now
