what about when you paint on :
private and puplic areas?
what is worst, and what is best.
private can be a pour mans house
puplic can be trains etc that we pay taxes for.
private can also be big capitalists.

what is good to paint on and what is bad?

Well private things is bad, i mean its really hard to get it off your house.

For trains, no its a desturction and not good.

For public buidlings, i think sure, for highways its okay i mean like a wall aroudnt he highway agaisnt sound, i think you should gravity on it, thats rlly dosnt matter.

But some city's got a special big house with walls and ppl can jsut make art there with gravit.

A train having graffiti on it doesn't really affect its performance.

Gratify is best when used on corporate head quarters.

Making the excuse it's art-work makes little to no sense. You want to do art work without destroying things/ Get a fucking pencil and paper and sit down.

part of the art of Graffiti is doing it in a location difficult to reach "often because it is illegal to paint on" this makes it only more impressive when the art is well made.

if anything i think it does nothing more than add some much needed color to the mundane greyness of American infrastructure

When you see grafity smeared across the sides of a bridge do you stop and admire it like you would a portrait in a museum? It's a sign that you're probably not somewhere you do not want to be... in or around a "bad neighborhood". Someone is going to have to wash it off eventually. No one wants their community to like like a pile of filth.

Would you incourage a child to write on the walls of his or her house?

Please be less vague. Was it drawn on the walls or placed on them? Also, I wasn't talking about art. When I was little I think I mostly just drew long lines across hallways.

Maybe I need to get out more. All I can remember seeing is hastily scribbled words and, rarely, large elaborate words.

Grafitti is awesome. Also, I saw a chalk anarchist 'A' on a Buddhist whatchamacallit thing during a journey to Nepal. We had just come down from looking at the Buddha at the top, and then there happened to be an anarchist 'A' on the ground. Twisted Evil
