Maybe it’s one of those things when you want to know more about the person who’s behind something that you really like and then once you learn a little bit you realize that you didn’t really need to know. Or maybe not.
Mission artist Victor Reyes seems like a cool enough guy. He and the Chronicle writer, Justin Berton, talk to a random “hipster”, then Berton calls Reyes out for how much he sold a piece and Reyes explains graffiti.
I guess it’s a better piece than that. It’s always going to be a little embarrassing, I assume, when you read your profile in The Chronicle. Anyway, I still think Reyes is the best working street artist around these parts.
Well, I don’t know if it’s Art or not, but I do like it.
Or, I will, until some assholes tag it.
Reyes is the HotShit!!! MSK AWR holds it down!
I don’t know that Reyes is the “best” artist working in San Francisco, others come to mind, such as Amanda Lynn, Twick and a few others, but his stuff is worthy of respect.
Don’t Forget Barry McGee. He doesnt really do street art anymore, but you can still find Twist stickers around. and you little toys better not tear them off and put them in some lame sticker scrap book. Someone put them up so everyone could seem them
Good luck with that, tough guy.
