This thread will be used to show graffiti from my hometown of Stratford Upon Avon. Graffiti is actually quite rare in Stratford, as the town elders have you murdered and dumped at the town limits if they catch you vandalising anything. Allegedly.
We'll start with this lovely image from AiMS (I think?). Little is known of this artistic rebel. Some say he wears a hoodie. Some say he only goes out at night. Some say he has a bmx with a bell on it. Some say he's part of the notorious "Straight Outta Compton Verney Crew". I know nothing of that though.
Edit: Nice bit of drippage there. |

Here is a pic from my local Stratford. The toilets at Westfield seem to suffer terribly sometimes.  No idea of the artists name this time. |

Fans of Kamo might be interested to know that you can still see one of his original tags on the wall of the library. It can be found on the wall between the library and the Shakespeare birthplace gift shop.
As you can see, it's aptly rather hard to see now. There was talk at one time that the council were considering covering it with Perspex. Until they realised they'd have to order some in. |

You should restore it before it's lost forever, that would be a real shame for future generations.

Welcome, welcome. Depending on how long you have, you can always check out the old skate park behind the leisure centre. It might be a bit boggy at the moment though, as we had some flooding last week.

Oldschool classic just outside the Girls Grammer School.

I visited my local Stratford again recently & found a tag. (ish)  Their sticker game seems to be strong but I unfortunately seemed to visit after a recent buff.   I trust the numbers lead to a answer machine message along the lines of Mobstr's work. |

Classic rookie mistake there. They started too far in and didn't leave themselves enough room to finish their word. Most probably "steve" or "strawberries"

Thanks to the cold, snowy conditions driving the usually intimidating young folk back inside to the warmth and comfort of their x-stations and playboxes, I took the opportunity to visit the local skatepark.

I like the way they've had a rethink and squeezed the surname in to help avoid confusing with any other Nicks in the area. |
