Writing on whose wall?

I am a lover of art; paintings, sculptures and drawings. I respect artists because they are responsible for all the art we so love and have all around us. Their work looks remarkable inside houses, yards and business buildings. However, is it not disturbing to come across people spraying away someone else’s walls without permission?



The marks they leave on these walls, of course, are of inventive nature and deserve applaud. But, shouldn’t the issue of getting permission of the owner of the building be of most importance? 
It is not that these painters do not understand the damage they cause for the owners; they are selfish and inconsiderate of all the trouble the owner of a certain wall goes through when cleaning up their mess, especially because they do NOT seem to be messing up their own walls.
I took the photos I have here in Parktown, near Jubilee road.
Snap!
