“Instead of using actual spray cans, some artists are just cleaning dirt off of certain areas to make their masterpieces and they are calling it reverse graffiti”

    Stupidly, this probably makes the city clean it faster.

      There was this road adjacent to the local university campus in my city that was littered with potholes. The city said it was the campus’ responsibility, the campus (rightly) argued it was up to the municipality.

      Things were at a standstill until, one night, this guy I knew went out and spray-painted massive dicks around each and every one of those potholes. The city then finally fixed them within weeks.

        Nothing gets done until it bothers those in charge. Same as it ever was.

    And as time goes on and more dirt appears, you can do a cool layered look.

      Waiting for your layer to cure like a real artist, just a week more or so and it should be okayish!

    It was all the rage maybe 10 years ago, on the pavement, “printing” publicities…

    It would look a lot better if you just pressure cleaned the wall and painted it normally.
