Cottonwood Galleries: Student Graffiti #1

This Graffiti Art lettering of the word Cottonwood is on the south wall of the Cottonwood Center for the Arts building and was completed in 2014 by local graffiti artist Fuse together with a number of students taking a class in graffiti art at Cottonwood.

The term graffiti is used for the highly stylized lettering of an artist’s street name, called a tag, typically painted using aerosol spray paint. Graffiti art is the term used when pictorial representation is added to the work. See the additional photo below for details of the student’s tags. (Source: conversation with the artist)
