Back in college, more than a decade ago, I used to dabble in streetart. I used to follow a few street artists in various blogs, mostly defunct now, like sprayblog and wooster collective. One of my favorite artists during that era was Swoon, and I was able to finally see her art in real life at Art Central in Hong Kong. ![swoon.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmSxY4xqN5wzyN1VdeR6BQiSmq3bpb5k1jyQQ84xpVCyec/swoon.jpg) The documentary "Bomb It" though was the catalyst for me to start putting up my works on the streets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vH87gP3A0s ### My Street Art 2007-2010 ![DSC05292.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaQdrejCKM6Tm8LWEAQL2GJqnfgAqZ2qoUU8y2sGHgEVC/DSC05292.JPG) ![DSC03902.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQ6QednJ5v1xihjvCgvDoNNRiv4LS1T6GF7Brj1ajnQ9x/DSC03902.jpg) ![DSCI0025.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd7ZWbPPjYR2fvcRiy9zYuXyco6USPd8BxBGDqUkpcrZK/DSCI0025.JPG) ![DSCI0191.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmSkDgvWKoNp2YTggXL9neZvB1VfCd4HaaSaEBsBPqEgyH/DSCI0191.JPG) ![DSCI0282.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQJtEseCtVSvS8H1v18aStc9D1ArJRNU4avykEHHa7KKS/DSCI0282.JPG) ![DSCI0284.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaz3dwsqsNokLBjig7gGMiMzREZ8UCxtzSR8qVa18hpbv/DSCI0284.JPG) ![DSCI0288.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQma98Jev99mqykKJ5NwG9uqJtsVt4RV2ZnTRVdrvAhWxUr/DSCI0288.JPG) ![DSCI0665.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmUDB6NZeXyz54BuJcEL5kumui7da57YZ8ZqXvhyxnH5cN/DSCI0665.JPG) After college I stopped putting up works as I was too busy as a full time instructor at our local University. Today I mostly appreciate it from afar. I've made friends within local streetart and graffiti scene and their works inspire me as I go commuting in the city. It was a fun chapter in my life and though I still enjoy making art, other things occupy my time. I might come back to it in the future, maybe when I'm old and gray. _*this post was inspired after seeing the streetart and graffiti here in steemit, shoutout to: @terty9photog._
