I have no idea what your problem is, but in this often stale forum, regardless whether you like my work or not, this one thread is unique.
I know of no other thread where someone is posting photos of their artistic work.
For a change, people who just see the mindless defacing of the majority of graffiti, are able to see that graffiti channelled into something more than just spraying a quick tag or throw up, can be something of beauty. Maybe if local councils were able to look in here and ask questions to an anonymous poster and get sensible feedback, maybe the sort of graffiti I currently do could be more widespread.
In this day and age there are far too many buildings and structures that are built to a budget, instead of for aesthetic qualities. An architect is more than willing to use bare concrete and try and make it part of the design.
In days gone by, when England was great, we would build power stations, chimneys and bridges out of brick. These things still stand and look lovely.
maybe if it was law that any concrete surface was a legal spot for street art. (and I'm not just talking about me and graffiti letters) if concrete was to become a surface for anyone to paint, you might get a bunch of retired people with an artistic streak in them, going out there with some paint and painting flowers, or some abstract painting or whatever. Sure there would be a lot of what i term 'dogging' and a lot of political slogans etc. But if it was to encourage people to go out and express themselves with a brush or a roller or a spray can, for others to enjoy.... It's got to be a whole lot better than boring old concrete and it would encourage architects to make more buildings from brick or stone, which in itself is a nicer thing to look at. Making the world a more beautiful place.
I will reassert the point that you are a mangy mut liar that goes around CC lying and flaming against people. And did you or did you not advocate my murder on 'The Burn Of The Day' thread?
But to directly address grafitti. It's ugly and if you want to do it on the walls of your home then so be it. But you have no right to tag public or private property. Furthermore we have seen tagging as a means to support the legitimacy of gangs and associated drug-related and murderous crimes.
