Graffiti Mural Art

To some Graffiti art is of no such thing, has nothing to do with art more like vandalism. It has always been a troubled avenue of debate. This form of art has been around for eternity from the dawn of time.
We haven’t called it graffiti until very recent. When we started using the term widely it was in the early 70’s to late eighties. It is well known that graffiti generated out of New York and spread through out the world. Some European countries have been known to claim that it originated their instead. Where ever it started it has been here to stay.
Many Graffiti artist move on to become artists in the general populations eyes. A lot of them have contributed to Murals, there are many programs out there in urban cities that take youth and have them paint walls in the community. Some times it is even the kids that did the graffiti painting over with a more picturesque mural. Graffiti artist through their evolution as artists often incorporate other design in their more elaborate works. The lines where the art changes from vandalism and art can start to get blurry.
