- Legit ask - how eco friendly is all this? You guys are caring about climate change yet spraying petroleum derived paint everywhere.shapesalad
- Spray cans can’t really be recycled. It’s something companies are trying to sort out, but really not much has changed in 70 years.PhanLo
- Interestingly spray paint companies have moved to eco friendly and recyclable materials in their aerosols, paints, and cans.PioneerDJ303
- There's no lead in the paint any more, one company makes paint propellant from sugar cane, but it's still hard to recycle the actual cans.PhanLo
- It's not eco-friendly at all...not even remotely in any sense of the word.utopian

- We finally have some nicely sized layouts in Instagram now.

I'm sorry that a) I didn't take a photo of this prior to the addition of shitty tag beneath and b) I didn't use a phone with a decent camera, but wahey.
This is nearby and was, 'til the tag was added, a sublime wee detail to pass on my way home for a week or so. Now it's covered in shit. Oh well.
The 'wall' is a wood partition that is covered in grafitti and then painted over in black and then painted over in grafitti and.. you get the picture. I'm practically on first-name terms with one of the painters who comes every n months to paint back over it... .
Anyway, during one such paint over, a sign that had been long-since added was pulled off, revealing this small swatch of long-since retired grafitti art, and I fucking loved the idea. If I was less lazy and encumbered by the strictures of time, I'd seek to replicate the concept elsewhere. Even cheeseball shit like taking a small detail from the Mona Lisa or whatever, rendered practical gra, woudl be cool (was thinking of 4 stencils covering CMYK, or here on a dark background, perhaps just CMY)

I've been tempted to make an official looking stencil that says something like "This surface has been painted black to encourage quality street art. Sponsored by [Electricity Company or whatever] name & Haringey Council" or somesuch shit, and then spray it in the top left corner of each 8 foot wide black-painted panel every time they repaint.- Banksy did something similar back in the day. https://i.imgur.com/…PhanLo
- oh ffs, of course he did, and of course i saw that long ago and since forgotten but also absorbed and so of course thought i had a good idea, but nup.Nairn

- I wish that this was all black and white.utopian
- I think he's done some walls solely in Black and White in the past with different line ups.
