How The Graffiti Artist came about...

Imagine your passion is art and you live in NYC in the late 60’s. What an amazing place for an artist to be, it was the “American Dream” and TAKI 183 was ‘living the dream’. He was a young artist who worked as a foot messenger all around NYC. This is where The Graffiti Artist came about; as he walked he couldn’t help but write his ‘tag’ everywhere he went. TAKI 183 was all around NYC and was quickly catching on by other artists. His tag gave inspiration to many other artists to hit the streets and display their art. If TAKI 183’s tag is considered how The Graffiti Artist came about would the romans not be the Graffiti Artists of their time??
