AbdulRazzaq says: “I have been drawing all of my life. My love for drawing started out as scribbles on my parents house walls, which then evolved to paper, then went from paper to canvas followed by canvas to street walls. The Graffiti Wall project initiative from Razzag.com, however I didn’t want to make any commercial income from the project, I just wanted to spread art and motivate young artists to explore their talents further. Therefore when someone donates a wall space to the project the wall will only be used for graffiti Art, free of charge but no brand/company/product/service placement is allowed in the art. In the long term we hope to see the project collaborating with other artists to create a motivation for art and graffiti.”
