Honolulu Graphica 04 - Lame Starter Tag

040305_honolulu_10_w498.jpg

On the edge of downtown Honolulu is this feeble attempt to write a tag. This unfinished graf is a rarity nonethless in a city that has relatively little graf and street art compared to most large urban cities on the mainland of America. If you look hard enough, however, you'll find graf of all kinds -- crappy, lame and hasty tags that are truly eyesores, as well as complex, innovative skillfully executed tags with depth and artistry. Look under overpasses or along the walls of the H1 Interstate that courses through central Honolulu for better ups.
