About Don Struke
Although I don't call myself a photographer, I have taken thousands of photos through the years and now and then I end up with one that is printworthy. Well, at least by my standards, which might be somewhat less than the norm. But you are the judge (continued below). PLEASE CLICK ON AD TO LEARN ABOUT THIS SITE I'm fortunate enough to have enjoyed a rather varied background in marketing, advertising, public relations, print and electronic media, TV production, and publication design in both corporate and non-profit organizations. As my list of photos on Fine Art America slowly grows, it should be apparent that my interests are all over the place, from the sight of beautiful flowers and landscapes to aviation and high performance...

It's hard to believe that this developed (presumably) from multiple artists working on top of each other's work. The way you framed the shot creates a nicely balanced composition.
Don Struke replied:
This is just a fragment of a two-walled blind alley that's probably 60 or 70 feet long. Even though it's in a not-too-safe part of town, I intend to take my camera (and, my wife suggests, SEAL Team Six) back there. Thank you for your very nice comment.
Don Struke
Thank you, Anne-Elizabeth. I agree with your remark about this graffiti, especially since we can assume it's by more than one artist, thus, it is collaborative art in its purest sense, wouldn't you say?.

Thx. for recent kind words about the El Matador picture. I am glad you told me where it was from. I wanted to give proper cretdit. Also I like this graffiti capture. It is truly in its own class as a work of art.

Man that is one gorgeous abstract, and I am diggin' it. Like, you know......... Cool beautiful!!! All walls should wear such beauty. True. Thank you for taking this photo and sharing it, Don. It is "like" the most beautiful wall ever.
Don Struke replied:
Thank you, Sharon! I think - and you probably lean likewise - that some graffiti really is fine art (in the modern idiom), I'm not sure if what I show here qualifies as such, but its vibrancy and energy, products of several graffitistes, can't be denied.
