Graffiti???

Postby 9bar » Sat Dec 02, 2006 11:30 pm

Has anyone had their van painted by a graffiti 'artist'???

My van is showing it's age and would benfit from a bit of a re-vamp and I was considering getting in touch with Leeds College of Art and Design to see if there was any up and coming art students who were a dab hand with a can of halfords spray paint and might like to use it as their project
:?
This might not be to everyones taste but I just like to be a little bit 'different' :wink:

Did you hear about the dozy Scousers who tried to nick a heavy metal door that had been painted by 'Banksy' the well known graffiti artist. They got arrested in the process :D :D :D

not a bad idea mate :idea: ,

the problem being you dont want it to end up looking just like some gits sprayed your wagon.

quite like the idea of the side of the van being tagged 'FORD' 8)

never know, the student who does yours might turn out to be the next damian hurst, and it'll be worth millions :shock:
