Helm I'm still a little unclear how you feel about it. I have read your statement a few times. Maybe i'm just a dumbass but could you dumb it down a little for me? 
Also for me it's not about ego trippin'. However when it comes to street art ( stencils ) I do try to do things that i find entertaining and will make even the general public like and appreciate. I also live in a place where is there almost no graffiti. well, good graff anyways as you can see by the walls that i feel should be covered in graffiti havent even had a drop of paint on them.
more stencils:







by the way that banana is 11 feet tall so you have a sense  of scale

it is very interesting to see your guys opinions on this.
there are many different kinds of graff which is a common misconception among most people. most people think all graffiti is tagging ( markers or straight can work to quickly put up your name ) or throw-ups ( bubblish letters usually 2-3 colors, and can be either the whole name or the commonly the first and last letter of the name. )
but of course there is the wild style where it can be impossible for the non graffer to read at all. but with much practice and understanding you will see excelent letter structure with logical extensions that do not distract from the letters.
as for me i tend to stick to 'mild' style where letters are not quite wild but are contorted but still with structure.
along with drawing the pieces i do go out and activly paint. I usually look for places no one will ever find except for perhaps another artist.
I am also very active in the stenciling world. where my placements are normaly bolder wich much more of an audience. I tend to do site-spesific designs where the stencil is designed for just that one location and is never painted again.

perhaps i should try to pixel my peices as it has been so long for me to wield a mouse.
and maybe i'll post some actuall painted pieces later.
