These pages I fixed:

Street Art




Thanks to the photographer Pablo Castro (In Melrose)...

My friend and I was having a discussion about how some street art has become more popular and spread throughout Southern California. I remember watching the news on how a lady had to paint over her fence because her neighbors didn't see it as art more so as graffiti. It's there a difference? I thought graffiti was gang related signs with no color aspect to them at all.

More so, people use street art to promote underground art shows or to leave a heart felt message using simple imagery. Has any of this effect you?

With me being more into computer art (designing on the computer, wishing I could actually street art), I see this as an influence to some how recreate this type of art on my own computer. Has anything ever influenced you to where you want to recreate it for yourself?
