Even though it may look illegible to the untrained eye, once you're familiar with the different styles within that art form, your perception of it changes. I see street art at the stuff that people do in public that's good, but not necessarily directly comparable to styles of graffiti. A good example of something that i'd say is no more graffiti than it is street street art is graffuturism, check it out on google. graffiti itself is an art form.

Graffiti or not, his work is definitely art. I'd have to say that most of the graffiti I've seen is like a figurative middle finger to the world. At what point do you draw a distinction between graffiti and street art, if both have that element of art to them? Aha! Good to know, John. Thanks. Graffiti or not, his work is definitely art.

He also painted the leftmost piece on the side of the skateshop, in which one of the O's in tooth has been substituted for a tooth. In response to Gray's post below me, tooth's pieces are a great example of graffiti, not necessarily street art. painting your middle finger would be an example of poorly done graffiti. It's an art form just like anything else. “tooth” is the name of the artist who painted the large piece on the side of the Texaco station.

Not that I would dare try to come up with a firm definition of what it is in all cases, but as I see it (read "my opinion only"), street art tends to be more artistic and adds to the beauty and character of a city, whereas graffiti is like extending your scribbled middle finger to the world on the side of somebody's building.
