    My home town in Sweden has started commissioning artists to paint murals like those in the top image on a lot of otherwise boring and ugly buildings, and I couldn’t be more proud. Really makes the town beautiful and unique.

      One major reason cities do this is because most fellow spray can wielders will respect the existing work, thus resulting in a nicely painted instead of randomly tagged building.

        I really detest dumbasses that put their stupid ass tag on legitimately good art. Nothing screams “desperate, talent-less hack” louder.

          Some guy recently graffitied my mate’s warehouse with the word “CUNT”. However, he did it using some outlines and shading, so we couldn’t even be mad. Way better than somebody writing their signature in black

            Thats hilarious. I like your style. I’ll also take an aesthetically pleasing cunt over that standard chicken scratch shit any day.

          Theirs is the same impulse as a dog lifting his leg and doing a short piss on a wall to put their scent there.

          Does it matter where they put their stupid ass tags on? Tags are just vandalism no matter where they’re put at
