After a jaunt down Huntington WV's 4th Ave. alleyway, I discovered that the backdoors of all the business had something in common.. In my attempt to document this discovery, I've ran into people and places I never dreamed I'd see~ and in my hometown, no less.

Some of the pieces you see in this composition will never be seen by 99% of Huntington, WV's population.. For that reason, each work of art shown in this composition should be seen as a one-of-a-kind work of art, and mostly having been done for the love of this form of hip-hop.

Please understand that graffiti is illegal, and therefore should not be imitated without thoroughly weighing the consequences. How cool would it be, however, to have a legal wall in Huntington, so that people practicing what they love wouldn't get in legal trouble. Many times, embracing what is perceived as a nuisance is what it takes to make a curse become a blessing. It takes understanding and the realization that good things aren't always traditional.

  • I'm so glad you made this. When i was 17 years old back in the 90's I wanted to do something like this,but lucky now cameras are easier to own. Keep it real

  • Still awesome....

  • Its good but there is some really good stuff at some out of the way places!! Epic has some great graffetti and so does the back of the Harley shop on 7th ave.

  • This looks amazing. Great job. Keep them coming..
