I’ve seen some amazing works in The San Francisco Bay Area. In Oakland and Berkeley especially. I really enjoyed taking BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) because there is a lot of graffiti on the walls facing the train tracks.

I always thought cities should dedicate city walls, on the sides of buildings and other walls to graffiti artists. Nothing brings out the best in graffiti art like competition does. It’s almost the essence of great works of street art.
