I would like to be....

The person I would like to be for a day would have to be Can 2 a famous Canadian graffiti artist, who has been writing graffiti for half of his life. One of the best this graffiti writers to date, a New york wild style with a twist. Sponsored by Montana spray paint, one of the largest high quality spray paint company of this era.
 
  This guy is my idol when it comes to graffiti, his style is so clean and original. Many try to do it like him and many have failed. His color schemes and shading techniques are so amazing and for him it's cake. His can control is outstanding, like if he were using a pencil. Straightest, clean lines and even coats of color, it's like seen a super model walking into smiths, everybody is left in aw. I guess hard work does pay off, because he's been doing this for half of his life.

  Half of his life is a lot of practice. I've only been doing this for a few years and I'm already well known in Albuquerque. Like every graffiti writer he's been busted by the cops, and so have I.  It's nothing to be proud of, but he it makes you a smarter artist. It even makes you think if you really want to keep doing graffiti art, for me I guess I fell inlove once I sprayed my first can. Like a great artist once said " It's like the greatest thing next to sex". Many might think well that's stupid but in reality it's true.

   I guess this story went from my favorite writer to my own life story as a writer. It's not the easiest life, but then again life isn't easy period. All I can say is that I'm going to live my life even if I'm not Can 2 or Seen or Cope. Graffiti is my life and it will always be till God decides it's time for me to leave my last mark.
