In the upcoming issue of Blanket (issue 15), I interview Some Guy, a San Francisco artist. In response to one question he remarks, "Most folks won't write on a blank bathroom wall. Except for taggers, and they're just jerks." So I dedicate this graffiti of the day to the tagger in the above picture. Why? Because underneath his red scrawl and if you look very closely you will see the faded outline of Sydney's last remaining Banksy. What a jerk.

a jerk indeed. honestly, it irritates me no end when brilliant graffiti is destroyed by tagging. there's a bus stop in fremantle that's been painted by stormie mills and his amazing work has just been tagged all over. if only those little punks had some comprehension.... oops, rant contained.
