Yah! The government should pay for my heat, and my a/c while they're at it. And my rent and groceries and car payment. And why not health care, hair care & cab fare?

That last stencil piece aside fromt he mesage is great work and I cannot imagine spending that much time with an exacto in hand to have that kind of quality. KudosThe grammar is giving me conniptions.
I would like the government to pay to remove the tags from my front steps. Yes, tags. There are two of them now.

Entrepreneur working to wipe out graffiti
Wednesday, December 2, 2009
By KEVIN PARKS
ThisWeek Staff WriterThere are two kinds of people: Those who put graffiti on public and private property because they think it's art, and pretty much everyone else. Dwain Bryant is firmly in the latter camp. He's the anti-tagger.
Bryant is the owner of Graffiti B Gone, which he operates out of his Sinclair Road home in the Northland area. Using various products and techniques, he removes graffiti throughout Columbus, including several apartment buildings in Northland, the Graceland Shopping Center in Clintonville and routinely on the campus of Ohio State University.

ROFL @ omnimix for being sighted here. The little fame chasers dig their own holes often and fill most of the argument for the not art side of graffiti. Only problem is this guy won't solve a thing he's just going to make a buck off the vandals just like every shoe, clothings, and urban marketing company. Congrats on taking the opposite side to make a buck as I can admire that. !)

Artist ready to repair Hilltop mural in spring
Graffiti showed up on newly finished work in December
Saturday, January 30, 2010
BY MARK FERENCHIK
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCHThe graffiti scrawled on the new Hilltop mural depicting the neighborhood's Civil War-era past will be removed, but not for several months.
On Monday, the Westgate Neighbors Association agreed to provide $200 to help restore the mural, but artist Curtis Goldstein said he won't touch it up until the weather clears, in March or April.

Wiping out graffiti? Here's an app for that
The old school practice of American graffiti may have met its match in some high-tech prevention programs designed to spot, report and remove the blight from city and private property.
The latest weapon comes in the form of an iPhone application, developed by a Los Angeles company, that will allow cities to catalog graffiti, dispatch cleanup crews and provide key evidence to police.The software application lets citizens or government officials photograph graffiti with an iPhone and send the image to the company's databases. The location of the graffiti is automatically marked using the phone's GPS capabilities. An electronic work order is created and, in minutes, a technician is sent with matching paint to cover up the graffiti. The images are catalogued and mapped so police can track down suspects and build a stronger case.

This past weekend I hosted some out of towners. An adult plus 4 kids. Heading out for some lunch we drove by the murals on High St and the kids thought they were the "coolest paintings ever!"
Just want to share that love with those of you out there that contribute to mural projects around the city. Thanks!

I don't think anyone is trying to rid the world of creativity in public, just unlawful graffiti.

The funny thing is snarf's girlfriend has called upon me for graffiti for both business and private reasons. ROFL
by the way feel free to read the thread on the sunflower mural in Hillard if you are trying to claim that the community is all for public art. The woman owns the property she painted and yet the community still has a stick up their asses about her private property. some people just don't know when to shut the fuck up and mind their own!
