My Picks for Cool Tweets About Graffiti

There are some who say graffiti is just vandalism and destruction of property. In a lot of instances, that’s all it is. But sometimes graffiti or street art or murals or whatever you want to call it, add a really nice touch to an otherwise drab and boring pile of bricks. There were so many tweets, it was really hard to narrow it down to a few.

Did you know that China invites artists from around the world ~ like Russia, France, Belgium, South America, etc. ~ to use their artistic talents and create street art on the walls of various buildings in cities like Shanghai?

I discovered an artist named Sonny Sundancer. He is impressive! I had a choice between lions and tigers and bears. Also zebras and the rhinoceros. I picked the lion to showcase his talent.

I searched for graffiti art inspired by jazz legends. Results included Miles Davis, Roy Eldridge, a cool mural in New Orleans, and Snoopy! What??! You didn’t know Snoopy could play the saxophone? LOL.
