A Lovely Graffiti Mural in Maia (Portugal)

in #colourfulphotography6 years ago (edited)

Here are a few more Graffiti found near the Forum da Maia (Maia's Forum).


Other parts in this series:

Part 3 - A Few Incredible Graffiti... and A Couple of Average Ones (Maia, Portugal)
Part 4 - Fourth and Final Set of Graffiti Found at Forum da Maia (Portugal)


This wall is very creative, colourful and its drawings are very amusing. I was very impressed with the quality of this work.

Here's a partial shot at this wall.

There was not a good spot from where to take a complete and frontal shot of it, so I ended up taking several photos, from various angles, as an attempt to grab the whole thing:

You see those Graffiti to the right? You can see them in the post: Excellent Graffiti Artworks in Maia (Portugal)

I couldn't leave without taking some close-up shots at the wall, could I?

And here are even closer shots at some of the funny looking characters included in this awesome Graffiti:

I'm amazed to see so many Graffiti with this high level of quality in my little country. Our artists are pushing their own limits and delivering some awesome pieces.

Yes, I have more in store, waiting to be published. If you like this kind of art, please keep an eye on my blog. This is just the beginning.

Awesome stuff - I love the fifth the most :D Portugal is such a street art PARADISE! <3

Thanks a lot, @soyrosa. Yes, over the last decade Graffiti have been on the rise, all over the country. 😉

Love it @trincowski :) It's great to see the murals in your 'neck of the woods' :) I especially love the little painter and animated spray paint can! Thanks for sharing.

You're welcome, Lynn!

Nice shots and love the graffiti... I'm less fond of the writing, but the images/pictures I like better! What does the writing say? or it just the artist tag?

I am not too fond of tags myself but these are different. It says:
"JWMN Maia 2014"

"Just Writing My Name Maia 2014” is the name of the event which gathered several artists to paint Graffiti all over the city of Maia.

Thanks for your comment!

Great shots... great subject.
@trincowski for WINNING!

Thanks, but I think the @photocontests bot is rigged. Or broken.

lol. like a slot machine!
Nonetheless, there's no harm in trying.
:)

This is great. I like the pictures. Tags are not art but a wast. Some good talent there

I agree, but apparently, there can't be Graffiti without Tagging. I think one thing leads to the other.

yea sometimes they just get carried away. What's worse is the ones who tag over someone else's mural. I hate that

Nice photos and great colors, @trincowski 😊

Thank you, Nélia! 😉

Très belles photos, j'aime beaucoup. Il y a beaucoup d'artistes dans le monde et c'est très bien :)

Thank you, @iptrucs! 😃
