Beth told me about this fairly new website called Random Vandal.

Random Vandal was originally created to "satisfy a growing interest in street art".

Personally, though, I don't think it only satisfies the interest. I think it sparks the interest, if anything. Street art, although illegal half the time, is still art. (Of course, I must say that some vandalisms are not quite what I would call art, but that's another discussion altogether.) And, like most art forms, they are usually taken for granted until someone points it out.

Well, here I am to point it out to you, my friends, as my own friend made me notice it.



I initially thought that the website is for witty, comedic, or interesting street art, or maybe all that at once. Although it is for all that, as well, what strikes me most is the thought behind the pieces. They're not all just wit and laughs. Some of them are trying to make a point. Some of them make me think. Some of them have a message of world peace, or some other similar thing. The pieces convey different things, and they come across as different things to different people.

Hm. Isn't that precisely what art is?

So head on over to Random Vandal and browse through their gallery, and even subscribe to their feed. I thoroughly recommend it!
