    I'd say this is aerosol art, not really graffiti, but anything that involves cans gets my attention. Thanks for posting it. This guy has quite some "can control".

    I think it is great to see how these ppl make these things! However I always find the end result....well...eehhh...ugly....

    It is very crafty, but I would never hang it up in my house ..hehe ;)
    Why not be mediocre and be the best at it that you can be?

    Iz The Wiz, old school there. The 80s graff in NYC was the shit. I did a bunch of papers in college on the social, economic, and artistic aspects of graffiti. I love it. I've got a graffiti library at my place. "Style Wars" still takes the cake.

    Style Wars is awesome!! Love that movie.. That actually caused a revolution in the Netherlands, it was aired in 84 on public TV and the same night everywhere people painted walls, trains and subways, haha, the NCRV (or was it AVRO?) never expected that!

    Graffiti now is part of our culture, so much graphic design is based on it.

    My last mural contribution: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v31/obi_once/DSC00209.jpg (almost finished)

    Nice mural! Trouble with the whole graphic design aspect is that it takes away from the pure form of graffiti. I know times are progressive, but back in the day it was spray cans, uni-wides, and markers. Now it's computers. The new era of graffiti is definitely wild, but the groundwork laid in the 1980s in NYC will forever be my favorite. So much experimenting going on at the time, the subways were riddled with incredible art, the movement was on!! Too bad it died.
