This is a great example of graffiti done well. The f is executed so well unlike most graffiti which may look cool, but it just done quit and sloppily. I also really like how they incorporated the pole into the graffiti instead of just painting around it. The colors work really well with each other as well. I think that it is interesting that they took the time to put a serif on the end of the F. I also really like the layered look that this piece holds. The graffiti artist took a letter form, and through the process of spray paint made something that looks like it could be high art. I really appreciate all the detail that was put into this and think people might think differently about graffiti if it all shared such detail.

This reminds me of the superman logo. I like that the artist went for that look but changed it up to make it their own. like the serif of the "f" extending out of the diamond shape. Also, the shadow behind the "f" helps it to pop out more. And the little swirly things towards the bottom of the "f" add some interest to the bottom of the piece.
This also reminded me of the superman logo. I think this is very put together and one of the classy versons of graffiti. I also noticed the hand or claw thinng that reaches around and grabs the top left corner.
This is so cool. I love this... I would want to tear down this wall and take it with me. The big "f" does remind me of the superman logo... definitely agree. The way the F protrudes outside of the diamond was a wise decision on the artist's part. I wonder what it represents. Whatever it is... Im sure the way each element was done was for a specific purpose.
this one is so fun. the colors are fabulous and bring this feeling of joy. I can't help but think how much the artist enjoyed this piece. While working on it and then afterwards. There's just this great happiness to it.
haha yea i get superman from this as well. It is very fun and unique i havent seen anything like this before. It is very eye catching i really love the jewel tones they used.
Again, I love the crispness that this one has to it. It really pops off the wall and stands out. This to me, though, is different from what I normally think of as graffiti...which is dirty and grungy, which I think you had mentioned in your post. I really enjoy this one.
This piece is so much fun because it looks like the Superman logo, but with an F in it. The colors are so bold and bright which is so different than normal graffiti. I think the artist definitely had a fun time with this!
I really enjoy the bold red "f" with it's black shadow and the extending swirly figures (I like to draw these types of lines in my doodling!), but what intrigues me the most is the yellow and white figure behind it. There seems to be a paw that's grasping this superman-like logo, and it's body is seen to the right of the logo as well. Perhaps it's an animal...a cheetah? I like the pink outline behind the figure as well...it intrigues me because the way the animal is cropped makes me wonder if there's more to this picture than we see!
