The mission of any graffiti writer is to get noticed! (Writers who hit highly visible locations also earn points for being ballsy.) I don't think this area is always as muddy as it was the day I visited -- probably depends on recent rainfall, etc. You're not the first person to suggest that book idea -- I'm mulling it over!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-88703954848376326042009-11-23T21:18:13.787+00:002009-11-23T21:18:13.787+00:00Did you ever wonder why Faro chose that particular...Did you ever wonder why Faro chose that particular place to do his art? I wonder if he too had to wade up to his ankles in mud to get there. I suppose graffiti "canvas" is not so plentiful. It would be interesting to know the pecking order as artists divvy up what's in short supply. Do they ever paint over each other's work?<br /><br />Why don't you write a book about graffiti in America? You could get a sponsor and travel all over the US interviewing artists and taking photos. I would buy it!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18356998698106275372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-65412138961180369852009-11-23T19:04:27.923+00:002009-11-23T19:04:27.923+00:00OK, that sounds like lots of fun.
