I'd like to see a better picture of this one.
[close]

go to google and type in "four horsemen." it's by albrecht durer

Yeah, it was orig. a carving/stamp, so crazy. in highschool I had to do an enlargement of a 4x6" copy of the original, into like 2ft by 3ft. I'll try scanning it in sections and putting em' together, my scanners too small.
I rarely venture into classic slap and the one time I do it I find a guy getting his dick eaten by a dolphin.

I've always been amazed at the amount of detail in woodcuts and lithographs and such.

I'm not a writer at all other than some dabblings here and there, but my brother is pretty dedicated, and actually pretty talented. He's of the same mindset wherein once someone starts getting paid, they're not legitimate anymore. I've been trying to get some of his work on decks for a while now, and he just refuses to do it. Eckos a dumbass, but what about people like Banksy, Kaws, and even Shep Farey (to an extent) who started off as street and the art world came to them, rather than the other way around. Do you forgo sucess in favor of keeping it real?
I'm just down with the fact that nobody can ever really commercialize graf. I'd be stoked on a Rusto sponsorship though.

kaws?
shepard the fairy?
banksy?

i would laugh, but i threw up a little in my mouth instead.

You mooch off your old lady for a living, but at least you're keeping it real.

to sell out one must have first bought in.

i have no problem with people making the jump from the streets to the galleries. i've got nothing but respect for the likes of barry mcgee and todd james (among others), who both got their start doing squiggles, and are both now making bank. there's a difference between putting in hard yards and getting mainstream recognition, and setting out from the get-go for that same recognition, a la banksy, and doing so on the backs of people who are real and deserve it more. don't use graffiti to market yourself if you were never graffiti. also, banksy is just tracing a path that was already well worn out almost two decades before by blek in paris (case in point, blek le rat, paris 1981 )

kaws was never  much of a writer as far as i'm concerned, and has not created anything worth looking at since. matter of fact, all he does now is draw X's on bape shit and collects cheques. is that really creative? or is the guy just running on auto pilot and capitalisisng on a fad? as for shepard fairey, he's straight ripped off a bunch of designers over the years, and is basically more concerned with being a celebrity dj/fashion designer these days, so who fucking cares.

and i don't mooch off my old lady (yet). currently i'm the sole bread winner in my house. my missus is my retirement plan. she's a monster with a paint brush, and when the world finds out i can kick back and be a kept man. i gots no shame in mah game
