In modern times, paint, particularly spray paint, and marker pens have become the most commonly used graffiti materials. In most countries, marking or painting property without the property owner's consent is considered defacement and vandalism, which is a punishable crime.


 Graffiti may also express underlying social and political messages and a whole genre of artistic expression is based upon spray paint graffiti styles.

The writing on the wall.. If you're not in to design, just sit back and enjoy this amazing form of art...
