Who or what is Hardgraff39? (Thought it was Terty9 Photograpy?)

Hello great people of Steemit!
You may be wondering who or what is this Hardgraff39 and what's it all about? (Terty9 photography is the company name)

(Hardgraff39 is the main header for my Graffiti projects)

Well here is a little about the project that is Hardgraff39!

First of all the Hard in the name has meaning and is related to the graffiti life style.

H - is for the Heaven ( A difficult place to get to in order to do your work! Normally a high building or point)

A - is for the Angles that have passed away (Well know graffiti artist that have died)

R - is for "Racking" a term used for acquiring your graffiti equipment without purchasing it. (In the past considered being true to graffiti as often the artist could not afford the things they needed)

D - is for "Domming" which is a colour mixing technique executed by spraying one colour over another whilst the paint is still wet and then rubbing ( Taking from the word condom: Rubbing-Rubber-condom)

With this project I hope to highlight the importance and impact that graffiti has on our cities! How it creates a unique beauty to our surroundings and adds a vibe that brighten up the city no matter where we go around the world!

Once frowned upon graffiti is no longer just associated with the poor people from hard up areas! It has taken the world by storm and allows people from all walks of life to express them selfs in a way they may not be able to do with spoken words.

Along this journey I hope to speak and work with artists as well as pay tribute to the huge numbers of graffers around the world with the aim of keeping their works alive forever as is often a master piece can go up today and be lost tomorrow with only a few people ever setting eyes on it!

With more and more cities around the world setting up areas and commissioning some of these great artist, it's only right that we help them get the recognition that they deserve! Often these artist seek fame without the fortune and only wish to be allowed to express themselves through the paint, through the art, through the Graff!

Follow the journey as I bring these stories to life via pictures, videos, interviews.
Some will be just of the works with only reference to locations whilst others will direct works with the artist in which I will be hopping to do then justice with the pictures I take!

Hardgraff39 is all about the Graff!

Their story where sometimes a picture will be enough to paint a thousand words!

(Picture below is of the first project I will introduce to you called "The Graffabout Sidok" who I had the privilege to work with for 2 days back in July and capture his work from the start to the end.)
