More and more becoming an art form ~ it is in some ways an 'ancient art form' ~ Your photo seems to have very pretty graffiti ~ Great post for ABC ^_^

To be politically correct let's call it unauthorized art.

There are some pretty amazing art works that are seen as graffiti.
Good post.

I like graffiti and definitely consider some of it to be art. I like the one you captured.
Not all graffiti is art, but this appears to be.

There is some graffiti that is definitely artwork--and I think what is in your photo qualifies!

I always call it Street Art, or in this case bridge Art :-)

I like graffiti art too. Tagging gives it a bad rap, unfortunately.

Certainly "art" takes many forms and many opinions are formed upon viewing the results! The color is delightful in this one. Many graffiti artists have been tasked with decorating plain concrete walls and bridges around the Washing, DC area. For a different take on "painted" bridges, go to my old posts http://lewspics.blogspot.com/2008/03/bridges-between-carroll-street-bridge.html and http://lewspics.blogspot.com/2008/02/day-46-old-fountain.html. Thanks for visiting my double sunrise.
I consider graffiti to definitely be art...depending on what is painted there

I always admire people who can express arts through graffiti.

I love graffiti art too - I have quite a collection of photos of it.

I would agree that sometimes talented artists find their start with graffiti and/or street art. I went to a wonderful street art fair in Denver last year. http://www.lafcustomdesigns.com/2012/06/denver-chalk-art-festival.html I like your capture under the bridge, Nonnie. Thanks for joining Walk and Click Wednesdays!

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
