nice work.
"inventor of ..." sounds quite pompous imho.
i have seen pretty nice tags outside every now and then that are on the edge of grafitti and calligraphy.
he masters it and takes it to another level, but inventor, no.
inventors hardly exist in graphic design or art, it's only process, logical progress in design or arts evolution.
everyone watches everyone.
- I agree that inventor is a poor choice of words. Pioneer would have been more apt for the application here.dMullins

friend of mine had Shoe for grafitti handle back in the day, until after years he found out about the guy in Amsterdam.
