express yourself

the streets are the best galleries for an artist to exhibit their works of art.
all music, all the walls painted, all you can do and show to all people, the streets are the best way to express what you feel, but always respecting what belongs to everyone, so this art is accepted.
You can play with everything, you can use all kind of material, if your concept is understood is very rewarding. You can find people who think like you, and who live or feel the same. the streets is your stage where you can give your face or act in the dark of night but whatever you do, make art not vandalism.In the last years street art is starting to be accepted.
scream, dance, give hugs, sing, paint, if you want but always have something positive to give or display.
