Thought I'd jump on today's new thread bandwagon. It's nice to read about us in the news in a positive light, no matter your stance on the subject of graffitti art.

Though i must say, the comment section is no nicer to us than our own region is, but not by much.

Notice where the writer went to school,110 submissions for publication,Ferndale,Royal Oak,Birmingham and this is the positive message she wants to send about Detroit city proper.

I wonder if she should start promoting graffiti in say Royal Oak,what would happen?

Can anyone give me an idea of how much it would cost to produce a piece like this? Would love to commission a mural of this level detail.
thanks

Murals are one thing, graffiti is another - most of what I see looks like a box car heading toward Gary Ind.

I would die to see a mural made by a woman who calls herself Mad-C in Detroit. Just look at this truly jawdropping Jurassic Park mural!!!

Some time ago she completed her magnum opus; a 700 square meter wall mural!! To put that in perspective in you money, that's a wall of 150x5 yards!! Google 700wall + madc for pictures
