Is Graffiti art or just messy

This week my class had to write a debate on if Graffiti is art or just messy. We had to write a persuasive text on our own opinion on if Graffiti is art or just messy. What I enjoyed about this was that I could make my own picture. Something that I could do next is maybe add more colour in my pictures

Is Graffiti art or just messy Graffiti, is it an art or a crime ?. I think that Graffiti is art. To me I think that it is a change for old walkways down the street.

 In my personal opinion I think that Graffiti is art. Art is not just something you paint/draw. It is something that you create that has a special meaning to it. Example, like Banksy´s drawing. What I like most about it is that some of his tell stories. Some people just love to draw/paint and so they decide since there is is blank wall they just persuade their self to go and Graffiti on it. Some people think of Graffiti as tagging, but how I think of it is that it is a colourful mural that is on a blank wall. What I am trying to say I that in each case art has a statement to it. They do this because graffiti been around for ages even better there are places around the world where the graffiti art is legal like France and all other places that are why I strongly believe, Graffiti is art. 

 Secondly I think that Graffiti can be used to vandalize, but at the same time, it can be used for good. Graffiti is not all names, swears, and offensive pictures. Some of the graffiti I have seen have positive messages and sometimes quotations that someone felt was worth sharing. Mostly it is on old house or containers that have just been abandoned. Lots of abandoned home have been graffitied on because no one is there to care about it some creative people come and put wonderful art on it.
