About Cave Paint

Graffiti and Street Art have become important mediums for the common or disenfranchised storyteller to share their journey with the world.

But, most people will not visit the galleries of these paper and spray can visionaries. Each expression "hung" on the walls in alleys or under bridges have a very limited viewing window. After each open night the wind, rain, snow and sun will take their toll. Then the next artist will proudly contribute to the collaborative work in progress.

This Flickr group can act as curators on behalf of these artists by engaging these works with our own interpretation, composition and style as we photograph and archive these images here on Cave Paint.

Over the past twenty years I have tried to be faithful to the legacy of these inspiring creatives who practice their craft in the shadows of our world.

I have posted some of my attempts to capture this beauty on the first few pages of this group (which in fact will be the last pages as you read this - please click the highest numbered page and then view previous pages to see my photographs to get a visual picture to go along with the word description posted here).

Thank you for contributing or viewing these works. I look forward to our collection growing in size and cultural / historical significants over the next few years.
