#2 <br /> <br />As far as my early attempts at graffiti, I will be the first to admit it was crude, and pointless. But I was also young when I got into to it, not that its any sort of excuse. I was arrested, and charged with over $2500 damages to one building alone. Now, I wasn't the only culprit, but I was the only one who went and met with the owner, appoligized for my actions and worked out a way to make things right, well my friends(who got me arrested in the first place.) got their parents to pay the debt, well I worked my***off for over a year doing community service for this bussiness. This is when I got serious about graffiti and realized it shouldn't be something you do just for the sake of doing it. So I buckled down, and greatly improved my skills. I have contacted local bussinesses and done commision work. I've painted legal walls, and I have painted over my own work because I was asked to. I realize that it is desctruction of property, and although this essentially goes against what I do, I do feel badly for damaging others property. It doesn't matter if its illegal or not, I would still be doing graffiti if there were no penalties to it, because its what I do.
