The image of the light graffiti shows a saxophone with music notes and ribbon drawn with light. These music notes and ribbons are drawn simply and also show good contrast in colour. The light graffiti was photoshopped with vibrant colours with shadows and gradiant effects. the music notes stand out, but so does the saxophone. This piece of light graffiti presents a good overall picture that attracts attention to all viewers.
The image of the spray can graffiti was taken on my trip with the other visual art students in downtown. This graffiti was found in an alley on the side of the building. The graffiti shows detail in the creative design of the blue person in the back with the bleeding smiley face. The portrait is abstract and shows a mix of different elements all in one creation of spray can graffiti. The picture creates curiosity and messages when you observe the pictures. It makes me wonder "why is the face smiling, but bleeding at the same time" and "why is there a circle at the centre of the blue man's forehead" ? The spray can graffiti expresses emotion in a very unique and original way.
Both light graffiti and traditional graffiti are both a creative way to express ones feelings and emotions. Graffiti is a way that claims a property, some are credited and some are not. The light graffiti is more of a form of media art created with photoshop. It gives off a computerized professional look, while the traditional graffiti shows a more professional artistic work. Although both forms of graffiti look very different, but they still show the same concept and a very good piece of art.

nice photo!
Yunn! I love how you incorporated yourself in this blog entry! You guys look super cute! I particularly enjoyed both types of graffiti you showed in this blog entry. I like the use of light in the first picture as it shows music as something that you usually can't see to be shown. Your second picture is also great, because its thought-provoking. You really want to know why the artist did what they did. It is very intriguing and i agree with your statements about how light and street graffiti are similar yet different.
