my thoughts on graf...

I have never been a huge graffitti girl, i appreciate the art style itself. But I hate tagging, i think its lame. Writing your name on a wall seriously... its a little self involved, don't you think.  It also most of it adds to the deterioation of a community or area. Now i'm not saying all of it is ugly, there are some beautiful tags. But i believe that if you have a skill like that, you should rather manifest in something that will actually help a community and add to an environment. IE inspirational words, whatever just not your name.

So in general i was against graffiti. We all live in the same world, we all need to be able to love what we see around us. And i don't really want to see a dudes name on a wall.

 

 

however, when i read this article and the laws they want to pass about graffiti, i became more open to the idea, that there is a difference between public art and graffiti. And it can't all be judged on the same level.. so i added my name to the petition. You should too.
