    I love graffiti, when I'm in london Im always surprised at how artistic some of it can be, most of the stuff on the rails and such is just crappy heres my name YAY stuff, but sometimes you come across something decent, and it makes me glad for spray paint

    Yeah some Graffiti is awesome, although alot is just random rubbish with no creativity or talent to be shown from it.....

    Here's one that I thinks awesome, as was found on a wall inside the Trinity Centre..





    Like that above looks AWESOME, and thats just like one part of the whole wall.. Couldn't get the whole wall with my Mobile Cam.. Still that bit was the best and looks awesome.

    Obviously all credit goes to those who made it..

    yeah, i'm from bristol so he's pretty big there, loads of his stuff all around the city. im a big fan of his stuff but from reading his book and mates that have met him he seems to come across a touch pretentious.

    Nice shots Noah. Whereabouts in Cardiff are you?

    I see a fair bit of pretty good stuff, most of it I like...

    Just checking out that Banksy guys webby, his stuff is most impressive. Some of it I don't agree with, though... graffiti + animals = badong, and I don't think graffiting statues is great, either.

    Basically ****ting on someone elses artwork. I'm sure they would get narced if I went and sprayed my name on their work :<

    That said, I guess architects might see their buildings as personal works of art, and aren't too hot on them getting defaced. Gah :/

    I thought Banksy was living in Hackney at the moment? I've been looking all over to see if I could spot some local with no luck as yet. I did spot a very Banksy type stensil of a rat on the front wall of Moorfields eye hospital the other day though.
