I always wanted to get into graffiti, using my artistic skills to decorate the urban landscape. But two things always stopped me:
1) I can’t draw/paint and
2) There is always such environmental impact from the spray cans often used to work with.
Luckily now, there is Eco Graffiti.
Using ever-present mud and stencils, Jesse Graves is taking his prowess to the streets. The Eco Graffiti movement is a clean (and almost legal way) to make a statement.
