Somewhere in Northern Colorado...
More to Graffiti than I realized: "Derived from the Italian word graffio (“scratch”), graffiti (“incised inscriptions,” plural but often used as singular) has a long history. For example, markings have been found in ancient Roman ruins, in the remains of the Mayan city of Tikal in Central America, on rocks in Spain dating to the 16th century, and in medieval English churches.", from https://www.britannica.com/art/graffiti-art

It's tagging not art...
There are graffiti artists but this isn't any of them...
Fyi... I've seen graffiti tagging on Egyptian ruins 5000 BC...

Art or vandalism, I do love wall murals! These are so colorful!
Here in Mary-land, a vandal was caught painting murals on a underpass concrete wall. His punishment was to create a mural on a site determined by the Court after removing the "criminal" one. He did and his mural is now a piece of art. Well received by the Community and an income producing punishment!
Well done!

Great story Dan. The judge is to be commend for seeing past the criminal act of tagging, and recognizing the art involved, then applying a very creative solution that combined restitution and support of the talented individual.
The story told here from Emory University, https://news.emory.edu/stories/2022/05/er_libraries_graffiti_exhibit_31-05-2022/story.html Speaks to the changing attitudes toward the art of Grafitti.
We have a talented art community here in Fort Collins that is active painting wall murals, old pianos even large outdoor electrical boxes (all with city sanction). If you’re ever out this way, look me up, I’ll give you a quilted tour of some of the works.

Thanks Rod!
I will certainly do that!
Yes this judge's solution to the problem was very creative and hopefully taught some others a lesson.

Banksy's right; especially considering more than 95% don't care about art - so why should they know...
Banksy's Ukraine stuff is fantastic political satire...
TENOG, you have visited people's houses; how is the art?... am I crazy?
