Graffiti (or spray paint) often regarded by others as unsightly damage or unwanted vandalism. But some times, the boring wall is supplied with a true piece of graffiti art, making it a joy for the eyes. A new game from Atari, Getting Up, is based on tagging.

I made a collection of pictures showing these fine spray paint creations. By looking at them and studying the details, you could boost your (Photoshop) design inspiration. If you're not in to design, just sit back and enjoy this amazing form of art.

Please take note that I'm not showing any graffiti tags or space spray paint in this article. Those can be pretty inspiring too.

Beautiful graffiti art

Actually, the last one indeed is a tag. I just had to post it here, the flames and colors are absolutely beautiful.

I still can't believe some of them are actually graffiti. Huge respect for those artists who create it. Now start designing!

Ehhhhh..... - Meh   2008-03-13 09:53:26 It's alright... Graffiti is still second hand art. I like some of the "non-ghetto" stuff, but most graffiti is just a pat on the back for creating fairly weak designs with spray paint. The only ones I'm even fairly impressed with are #2 and #3, but they're still ghetto. Reply | Quote

Brian   2008-06-01 19:40:51 How can you say something like that?! Art is art, hands down, art is an expression of feeling and a display of ability, it takes TRUE creativity to use city streets as a canvas. Anyone can go out and buy paints and canvas... But it takes true devotion, creativity, and poise to use a brick wall! To say it's "ghetto" or "weak" is simply a way to make yourself feel better, because you know you can't do it! Art is from your heart, no "reputable" museum can decide that or not, and until you understand that, you will never be a true artist. Reply | Quote

Chelsea   2008-04-11 02:35:34 As an art student I can really appreciate the personality and effort put into these amazing pieces. Judging someone else's expressions as "second hand" is pompous. What is wrong with being ghetto? Art is the freedom of expression. Don't squelch someone else's Freedom. Congratulation to the Artists Peace Reply | Quote

NotEasyatall   2008-03-21 20:42:35 Listen little boy- what he said was true. REAL artists PAY their dues, PAY for their own canvas, and make they're art where its WANTED. Anything else is pointless, stupid vandalism. Losers with nothing real to say, no jobs, no future, so they go 'make a mark' on someone elses property. Unless someone gave you permission to put it there, its not ART. Its vandalism. Reply | Quote

Chelsea   2008-04-11 02:41:56 Vandalism is the work of a closed mind. Call it what you will, But this is art. Real Artists don't conform to the confines of a canvas. This is out of the box. The world could use more people like these artists, and less condescending squares. Peace Reply | Quote

God - Who is an artist ?   2008-06-06 00:57:36 Art is respectful and I agree with some of the comments...what is art to you may be trash to others...find a respectful medium and display it in a place where it may be viewed at will (gallery) or the so called artist is only imposing itself on others whether they want it or not.....what would you call that....defecation? Only someone can call the artist an artist cause without anyone seeing it as art it is simply ....something! Reply | Quote

rocketrefund   2008-09-22 07:30:30 art does not have to be respectful. Street art is good precisely because it is not in a gallery somewhere. I don't have to pay some museum in order to see someone's art. Maybe all artists don't care if they get paid, or public recognition. Everyone imposes themselves on everyone else. Not only street artists. Right now you are trying to impose you idea that imposing ideas is shit. That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. What about television ads? I don't really want to see half of the crappy ads people pay to put on television. I choose to watch the TV. (sometimes) But you choose to walk down the street. At least my art isn't inside your living room. I mean, you do make a point, but why should we be expected to apply it only to art? Reply | Quote

guest2009 - Hmmm....   2009-06-11 16:57:40 My question to all of you who support graffitti art on the streets......... would you want someone to spray paint the side of your home? would you want your kids to view some of the stuff that is painted on the walls? not everyone can "choose" what streets they walk down or what they see on those streets....so why is it okay for others to defame private property and subject others to their "art" when it may be offensive to others? I'm just wondering if anyone has thought of these questions when they are making statements in support of or against graffitti art on city streets. Reply | Quote

Ray   2008-05-07 23:34:50 I think most people reading this will agree with me here when I say that its people like you [Noteasyatall] who ruin art these days as you seem to think that art can only be 'art' if somebody wants to buy it. Art is a form of expression just like writing or singing, if someone wants to buy it thats great but if not then it doesn't make it any less of a piece of art. Just because everybody might not like, or want to listen to your favourite song doesn't mean it isn't a song does it? It really fustrates me when people slate graffiti especially they say its 'vandalism' just because its on a wall not a canvas. Obviously these people have no imagination, creativity or any idea how difficult the art is or even how skilled these artists have to be. I have alot of respect for any artist whether the work is to my taste or not, but people like ''noteasyatall'' should really let go once in a while and stop getting on their high horse just because they think that they know better. Try opening your mind to a few new things because theirs some really great stuff out there . Personally, I think these are great especially the 3rd and 10th ones. Does anyone know the artist of these? They look like they're from the same anyway. Reply | Quote

Aethel Wulf - To Ray   2008-08-06 12:57:51 Yes, graffiti is absolutely an art. It does take an unmatchable skill to pull these off. But the bottom line still stands. In a sense, someone is paying for their art. It is costing land and business owners hundreds of dollars to repaint their walls. Now unless this art is licit, it is equal to drawing on a sleeping person without permission. The only difference is a contract painter cost money. Nothing excuses the damage to someone's property. I want to know if any of the illegitimate "taggers" paint on their mother's house or their best bud's house. Everything can be perverted, and portrayed disrespectfully...Even art. Reply | Quote

rocketrefund   2008-09-22 07:25:00 They probably would. Their best buds probably help them, Their mothers are probably proud of their talent. The only problem with this for illegal "taggers" is that this is very close to home to say "Hey, I live here, I'm the one painting all over town!" But only one of these was a "tag" and it was probably legal. Reply | Quote

Heidi   2008-05-16 15:16:57 If you noticed most of these are huge pieces. They probably got the OK to do them.. seeing as it would have taken a long time. and the police would have caught on after noticing it....? I personally think all of hem are amazing! Reply | Quote

rocketrefund   2008-09-22 07:21:35 You have your head up your ass. Vandalism can still be art. Creating a hole in a beautiful stained glass window is still creating something; albeit, a hole. Try arguing with words that you know the definition to. And, retard, a paid artist does not buy his own canvas. The buyer buys the canvas and the paint, and the time, and the design. And what the hell does "pays his dues" mean? Like dues in the awana's club? the rotary boy of the month club? Some stupid frat where you can drink your fucking mind away, surround yourself with people who believe the same as you so you don't have to change or be pressured to think, beat up, shun, haze, persecute anyone who thinks differently than you...? Your head is up your ass still. by the way: A lot of street artists that you see on sites like this one actually do have something to say. For many of them, this is their job, that they get paid a shitload of money! A lot more for something that is more meaningful than anything you will probably ever do. This is their future, and I must say, a brighter future than yours seems to be. And I want their art there. It's better than some falling down wall with stucco and paint pealing off of it. It's better than some vast white or grey nothingness. It's better than a lot of things that I don't want there that is legal. So maybe it is ghetto; Though, I don't see any of this as being very ghetto. These people have more skill than most people I ever meet. And maybe you are an elitist dick who has to go make his mark on some web forum where you aren't wanted with lousy grammar and horrible creativity! Reply | Quote

rm - Graf is art   2008-03-14 01:43:57 Quote: You won't see reputable art museums ever showing them. Maybe some wanna-be museums...but never the real deal... Reputable museums often feature artists who've pioneered or mastered a technique in a certain medium. Painting, as in paint applied by a brush on a surface, is thousands of years old. Graffiti by it's modern definition (markers/spray paint on a surface) is only in its thirties. Give it time, and one day you'll see a big chunk of wall in the Smithsonian. Reply | Quote

Voodstoc - Sweet   2008-03-19 21:56:24 Definitely art. I love the dimensional stuff, especially. And when you see a correctly proportioned face that large, that says the artist draws a great deal. Artists will express themselves with anything, period. Paint on a building goes back to ceilings in chapels, so why would this be weak? We may see alot of graffiti and think it is all similar, which is fine. Commenting and blatantly pointing out the fact that you don't get it is alot easier than making something completely original. ~J Reply | Quote

A lot of graffiti artists are very bright people who DO have something to say. You shouldn't look at graffiti and just call it graffiti, you should look at it and admire it. Sure some people just do tags, but others create impressive murals that portray a message. As far as "them" being jobless bums with no futures, maybe they're jobless but they have futures.

exiledsurfer - More from RAM (picture #1)   2008-05-17 12:24:03 #1 is from RAM (Random Aeresol Movement), an amazing portugese artist i had the chance to meet by chance lin 2006 in lisbon while he was organizing a graffiti exhibition in an old printhouse he squatted. He is one of the moving forces in graffiti in europe, and is simply an amazing artist and all around good dude. While he primarily works in lisbon, he grew up in Sintra, about an hour outside of lisbon, and across the street from the house he grew up in is what is known locally as RAM's Wall of Fame, a block wall surrounding a factory, the owner of which recognized RAM's talent, and allowed him to completely conver with his work over a period of years. The wall features his collaborations with the who's who of portugese artists, and is a living museum to their art. I posted pictures of my favorite pieces to flickr last year, and you can see them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/artificialeyestv/sets/72157594280475187/ photos from the printhouse exhibition, called VSP, which was covered in work over the course of a year leading up to the final closing exhibition, where i had the chance to do a live video performance while the final work was being created live can be seen in these two photo sets at flickr: (closing day) http://www.flickr.com/photos/artificialeyestv/sets/72157594279507475/ (our live video performance) http://www.flickr.com/photos/artificialeyestv/sets/72157594280266824/ I would like to point out that i (a non grafitti artist) personally BOUGHT 3 pieces from the artists exhibiting in this exhibition because i was blown away by their work, much of which could be exhibited in any gallery or museum of reputation anywhere in the world, and often IS. Graffittti has long been recognized as a reputable arform, both critically as well as in terms of being sold to collectors, at leastsince the mid-70's. EASTPAK, the backpack manufacturer is an ongoing sponsor of the portugese scene, and has also commissioned the artists to do custom pieces on commission. Born in the ghetto, graffitti has long been coopted by corporations and the media, and spread all oer the world as an artform, lifestyle, and culture. I will also take the time to point interested people towards the other video work that my partner synesthete and i did while in lisbon, the Video Grafitti project, there is a photoset here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/artificialeyestv/sets/72157594280493809/ and a video on youtube here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=7obD7PcZWBI "Together with local VJ collective, videomorphose.com, artificialeyestv bombed the city with guerilla video graffiti, a form of urban street art new to lisboa. Armed with a full magazine of subversive content in their laptops and a high-performance videobeamer firing twenty five frames per second mounted inside a civilian SUV, the crew of four assaulted the streets late at night with their temporary visual ammunition. Video graffiti covered walls, automobiles, and monuments temporarlily, leaving behind no damage or trace of their presence." Reply | Quote

Chiners - Now, now   2008-05-17 19:49:05 I think these do look amazing (and I just hate how these guys/gals manage to create depth on a flat wall like that), as an "artist" these are candy for the eyes. However, I really don't agree with the downvoting and scapegoating "NotEasyAtAll" because he doesn't consider grafitti art. These elaborate pieces are obviously commissioned, or simply allowed, but to call someone "closeminded" for stating the obvious fact that unwanted grafitti is vandalization of property.. Yeah, you're candidates for the "should not be allowed to breed"-pool. Reply | Quote

the one - the master   2008-10-25 04:45:17 to the angry readers: graffiti is how i started my graphic design career. i was arrested 2 times, and was never charged. to tell you the truth, all of the friends i used to write graff with in high school (and later) have good jobs or gigs now. most are entrepreneurs... a lot of friends that were into more traditional forms of art/music when we were younger have joe jobs with no creativity involved... i guess they got burnt out on creativity through conformity. i would like to understand how someone can think that any of these examples are ugly, or even more so, how the building or wall under any form of vandalism is in any way more beautiful than the earth that was once there. we've all vandalized the earth in one way or another just by contributing to our society... smell your shit, it probably smells worse than you think.

Xavier - KEWL   2008-11-25 06:23:48 I will never mind if someday I wake up and see all my house with this kind of graffiti. But I´ve seen really bad designs, and even more, just letters of stupid guys... Great job dudes. Reply | Quote

No Mersi 1 - Mr. MuthaFuck!   2009-02-27 01:28:32 If you think graffiti is all bout throw-ups and bombs than you need to learn how to do better or don't say shit. I have no respect for faggots who think this is vandelism. Pixel is a legal artist and gets paid to have people admire his work. whether you paint on canvas or brick i cake it. Don't be negative...
