Graffiti

I found some graffiti on a wall one day when I was walking. Graffiti is usually classified as vandalism and is an ugly spray paint job done by someone at 1 in the morning. Some graffiti is beautiful and does look good. In some places you see graffiti that are pictures, say for example Mario and Luigi, or even another person with a can of spray paint in their hand. People who do vandalise things with graffiti put a lot of time into painting their 'artworks'. It is a cool thing to come across if you find some that really catches your eye.


I think this graffiti is very nice, it says 'risk'. Take into consideration the artistic ability of the person who painted this. The letters overlap in a certain style that is classified as 'street vandalism'. The range of colours used in this piece of graffiti is amazing, they compliment each other. I also like the sky with stars above the tag. The dynamics of the letters to make them stand out are iconic. If more graffiti was painted like this, instead of those lazy tags on people's fences, I think it would be accepted by the community as pieces of art.
