Graffiti is the name for images or lettering scratched, scrawled, painted or marked in any manner on property. Graffiti is any type of public markings that may appear in the forms of simple written words to elaborate wall paintings. Graffiti has existed since ancient times, with examples dating back to Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire.

I think graffiti is one of the coolest forms of art. It is an individuals creativity and this gives them a chance to show the world that passion for creativity. I was down an alley way on melbourne's famous sydney road and found these pretty awsome peices of art. Some deem it as vandalism of property, but i personally see it as a form of art, and find that it brings color into or world. Streets are filled with these for no cost to the government, council or any other tax payer. Let us rejoice in this form of art and get creative people!




Note: I do not condone 'Graffiti' in the context of racism, sexism, prejudice messages and so on.
