hey brandi,
here's another two things that put a silly smile on my face, warm my heart, and all that jazz:

2. Having one of my artworks displayed on the wall at school; hard work pays off.

hi

I really enjoyed your work. Comgratulations!!

my name is erica danbesi and i am an art student from brazil and here the graffiti movement began in mid/late 70´s.

i recommend you a blog of one of the brazilian graffiti pioneers, a guy called MIGUEL CORDEIRO who created a graffiti persona called FAUSTINO back in 1978 and gained national recognition with his works on the streets..

a classic graffitiwriter/artist he´s a typical outsider and a kind of contracultural underground hero in Brazil.

his blog is considered here in brazil a reference for excellence and it shows his works, drawings, paintings as well his texts, aphorisms, poems, lyrics etc.
