10 comments what a scam this is ! guy who started these is a southamerican artist i met in sanfrancisco since the early 90 and he also did it in nyc ,this g guy is another clown looking for easy fame
Mate, the this is outrageous! Practical and beautiful! What can be better?
this is the best art i have i ever seen gust out on the street
i have been photographing & reinterpreting street art for many, many years. i love the energy, the truth, & the chemistry behind this art form … (c) EllisG. never let them … and you know who they are … stop you from creating your arrested moments of a shadow.
Awesome! This is the New American Street Art! Kudos and Bravo to you, Mr. Gallagher!

john p post on 7/20/09: 7:59 pm.. john p is a hater who knows nothing .. ellis has been around just as long .. ur SF guy most likely bit off of him. considering ellis was born & raised in nyc, the medium is far more gritty urban for a new yorker than some s. american who went to SF!
