Mick has moved to a new blog host ... you will now find me at:
"Writing"Labels: Art Everyday by Mick Mather, manipulated digital photograph, writing
posted by Mick at 4:00 AM
In its short-sightedness, blogger has turned its back on those of us stuck with old operating systems and I'm forced to find a new blog host. You will now find MickMathersARTblog at Blog.com - use the direct link found in the masthead and remember to update your bookmarks. This place will continue as another archive for a large body of my work. As many of you know, my primary medium and working method is digital collage composed of manipulated photographs often combined with digital drawing & generative images. Netlabels, bands and musicians can view samples of my CD Cover Art at Mick Mather Illustration located on Tumblr. In another life I was an Arts & Culture consultant specializing in revitalization planning through creative public art projects and programs with Economic & Community Development Departments of towns, villages and cities. In these hard financial times this work is more important than ever and I still accept consultancy inquiries. You can contact me by email at: mickmather@yahoo.com

I agree with the quote (at least partly).
But I have a question, if that's a blackboard, why didn't anybody write on it?
This one is impressive, Mick. Inspiring.
hpy:
Actually, it's not a blackboard. It's called a tack board that railroad crews staple way bills to. This one has been recently refinished and painted.
John M. Mora:
The philosophical thought in some graffiti never ceases to amaze me.
The message is good although the place is not...interesting.
Rise and shine,
cool.
Carolyn Ford:
It's always been an idea of mine to connect graffiti artists with railroad companies. Subcontracting artist teams to paint entire cars could go a long way toward improving the art form while benefiting both parties.

I'm up! I'm up!
Superb! Love your chosen shot and quote. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Lucky Dip Lisa:
I've been photographing graffiti for many years and, despite the destructiveness and legal issues, find a lot of it beautiful in many ways.
one of my favorite quotes and the image is also of one of my favorites-- walls with graffiti - certainly apt today.
layers:
Thanks, Donna ... as above, I enjoy images like these as well.
Good one Mick! I've missed a few. Time to peruse...
:)
studio lolo:
Have at it, Laurel! :)
