Sean, my 23-year-old step grandson, is a gifted artist. Skillful in many media and genres, so far he gravitates to the world of commercial Graffiti art.
Not something I can get into, but...

During our day in Philadelphia, an essential point of interest was this Airbrush shop in Old City. A very unique experience for me, to be sure!

I am a huge fan of Graffiti art Michelle. unfortunately there is a fine line between what is art and what is criminal. For the most part beginning with simple tagging to gang related. As in all art some is good and some bad. Unfortunately the bad is always on public display and has a louder voice than the good. Some merchants under the proper circumstances would welcome some beautiful graffiti to liven the joint up. Here is to Sean and your terrific finalist! #9042687Patrick Rouzes November 16, 2010
