"Mr G"

I feel it is time to step aside from blogging about this new digital revolution that is evolving each week in class.

Although, my idea for this blog has developed from surfing the internet waves.

While doing some reading here and there I came across three sites that reflects the lifestyle of “Mr G”.

Mr G is not a graffiti artist but an aerosol artist of fine art. His work is amazing. In his work there is no such thing as a brush stroke: his masterpieces are done purely with spray cans.

Mr G is an inspiration to the youth in New Zealand and even in the global market. He is out there in the tagging community making a difference by showing youth how to change a tag into art and to respect property. All of Mr G’s work is done legally!!!!

I have posted one of his sites (www.mrghoete.com) to www.del.icio.us.com but he also has a blog www.mrghoete.blogspot.com and a clothing line website www.repz.com. From reading his blog you will see that Mr G made the front cover of UNO (lifestyle mag). Pick one up and have a read, its inspirational.

If this is the first you have ever heard of him, I can tell you now that it won’t be the last: Mr G is something else. So humble!

We all know the late Sir Edmund Hillary; well Mr G was commissioned to produce a canvas of Sir Edmund Hillary that was auctioned on TradeMe. It is a spitting image of Sir Edmund Hillary, and all done by spray paint!! AMAZING!!!!

It just goes to show that if you have an idea, a passion or something you are gifted with you can make it work for you. It may not be easy, but what is the harm in trying?
