SPRAY CAN GRAFFETTI CHARACTER by Subwaysurfer

According to my stats, THIS particular character, is getting a lot of attention from certain viewers and has become one of the most viewed, and probably downloaded pics on the subwaysurfer Blogg. This just goes to show you that you NEVER can completely guess what peope are going to respond to. Ive ALWAYS been a fan of Graff art and writing since the seventies and eighties, and elements of the style have appeared in my caricature work. I did the original spray can just as a drawing for myself, and uploaded it because I thought it ould be kinda cool. Apparently, other people think so also, which is why I did an updated version.

DOWNLOADING AND SWIPING PICTURES AND ARTICLE POSTS
Im not one of these, come at ya will all guns blazing if you swipe some of my pics off the site and use them in your blogs or to accompany your articles. In fact, the web being the social media beast that it is , I have come to expect it.

FEEL FREE TO SAMPLE WHAT YOU WANT FOR YOUR ARTICLES AND BLOGGS WITH CONDITIONS

Lets be fair about this. Im a professonal artist. I do this for fun AND profit. If people are lifting pictures without even ASKING permission, AND not compensating , thats not cool. I am reasonable and can work out deals financially via paypal that are affordable, AND will even be willing to draw something custom made. I recently stumbled across one of my pics used by a fan to illustrate one of his articles, which was, quite excellently written, by the way! LOL! I contated him on compensating me for the pic, the price was more than reasonable, and now we have a working business relationship built on trust and respect. Thats all Im asking.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO SWIPE INCLUDE MY URL AS A LINK
