Street Art

Upon receiving instructions on what to do I all ready knew I wanted to do something different. For this field blog I decided to go out side the box and due a different kind of art. The piece of art I choose goes by the name graffiti. Usually doing this kind of art requires imagination so by writing a word or a name making the viewer think, he or she is looking at abstract work. The location of this art is on the corner of San Pedro once you exit highway 35. art

The artist who did the art left no name but the name of there crew, EZLY; since I don’t know the artist personally I don’t know what that means. When looking at the art I am able to see that the texture is rough because the artist drew on brick; the artist also incorporating great value using the wonderful variations of hue in this A Symmetrical piece of art. The artist median in this wok is spry can, I think being able to capture the value in the work and combining liquid colors to make another color takes talent.

Just because a piece of art in not on a canvas does not mean it’s not a piece of art. Artist in these genre of art are usually frowned upon due to the narrow minded critics of society. I believe art is art and should not be scrutinized because of where it’s done (public buildings). Credit should be giving to artist for there skill and not there form of art.
