Intro Graffiti is a controversial form of self-expression. The Bay Area is home to many artists who have painted the town with their words and characters, and the Mission District was an original hotspot for street-based public art projects.

After years of completely abstract work he abandoned the black grid to use yellow lines and red, blue, and grey colour blocks to build a representation of New York infused with all the vibrant kinetic energy of raucous road-house piano blues in 'Broadway Boogie Woogie'.
