Just enough space at the bottom.


False is a Charleston tagger. This was taken downtown.

Here is a little one on the edge of a newspaper box. Look at the parallel sides on with his letter sizes.
some random stickers with those pleasant borders on a window.



The full text reads: "If trees could scream - would we still cut them down? unless they were screaming all the time and for no apparent reason. In which case we would kill the whinny trees"

If this is true, where is the advertisement?
"It's a goddamn beret." Kind of looks like a pancake to me.

Here is one of those eggs I was talking about! Someone has since tagged over it. What a shame.

Here is a better shot of this sticker and the gun sticker on the bottom that I posted last time.

A crazy bird thing on the curb.

right next to this. I don't know what on Earth it says but I like the arrow at the bottom.

Stickers in the golden city


Here was this door in charleston with a bunch fo stickers and a few quick tags on the top left. The robot thing was a god idea.

Elegant and simple. I wonder if they had to jump to get the back of this sign. I like how they did the back of the sign which doesn't make the message on the sign secondary.

Way up high but hard to take a photo of. Direct mail. They get mad when you take them from the post office and never mail anything but there is nothing they can do.

I don't know if it is a rat or a frog but I like it.

Owls. Who doesn't love a good owl? Good and unexpected use of color.

A big meaty bit of news and something from Monongalia county

Artist puts his yolk on city.
I've heard about these eggs in Charleston. Someone went as far as to paint bacon with one. Oh-No is painting eggs. Everyone eats eggs... not too big... its brilliant. A good interview with the Artist in this.

The Herald Dispatch has an Editorial about punishing Graffiti offenders which boils down to this.
"In theft cases, that threshold is $1,000, meaning that if the value of the stolen property is $1,000 or more, the offense is a felony with more harsh penalties. It's not clear why the threshold for a felony destruction of property conviction is $2,500, when the loss to the property owner is just as real. That discrepancy should be fixed by lowering the threshold for a felony charge when people deface or destroy property"

They also published eleven photos of graffiti downtown. The 4th and 9th photos are my favorite. They both feature visitor or one of the other wheatpasters. squid, zombie, deadface. also make some appearances.

A lot of this backlash recently is because the influx of people to Huntington in the fall. Two artists were caught in September behind city hall. bad timing? or a heavier police influence?

As promised here is some graffiti. which is from neither Charleston or Huntington but Morgantown.


political. nice.

wvu will die in 2012? vengeful.
I think the star of David gave you away.

Charlestondays


I wish I got here before the rip. OhNo does consistently good work. But I think the fried egg is a nice response.



and I just love this thing here. Good work comes out of Charleston.
Paebak has been getting around. I have reports of him throwing stuff up as far away as Louisville. Curious indeed.
