But this article is too short! Graffiti is a beautiful thing, it deserves more than 2 paragraphs. Put 'Bomb It' at the top of your Netflix queue, it's a wonderful documentary about graffiti culture around the world. It'll show you just how much of an art form graffiti really is. Lovely video.

I love your line "the way it feels like the freshly sprayed paint is still dripping wet. It’s as if you can feel the movement of the paint. After all, graffiti usually doesn’t have a chance to become too old and faded since the authorities try to remove it as soon as it’s discovered." My 'work' was gone in a few days, but it didn't matter too much because I wasn't that good, but it was a thrilling experience nonetheless, and it gave me an appreciation of street hard. It's a lot harder than it looks...and the creativity factor is unbelievable. Banksy’s (UK street artist) work inspired me to try graffiti for a few nights while living in Chicago.
