# Graffitied Love Declarations This Valentine's Day, Express Yourself With Aerosol By Cowbag | Published 2009-01-25 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tagging-love-declarations-saying-i-love-you-with-aeresol References: [flickr](http://flickr.com/groups/iloveyouworldgraffiti) We all loved the guerrilla sunshine-spreading article, and I love this tagged series of "[I love you](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peace-love-joy)" declarations too. All of these images come from around the world and I just really like them, especially with an rapidly approaching [Valentine's Day](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/free-union-station-flowers). It really works for me that these [tags and paste-up examples of graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enigmatic-graffiti) are in really grotty areas in main metropolitan areas. It shows better than ever that love is an emotion that exists in every environment. Does anyone else find the “I still love you” tag infinitely depressing, but its artistry just brilliant?
