Graffiti is a form of art rather than vandalism (Сочинения ЕГЭ английский язык)

The issue whether graffiti is a way of self-expression provokes many arguments. Some people associate writing on the walls with criminal while others argue that graffiti shows individual vision and cannot be illegal.

In my opinion, graffiti is a suitable way to convey your feelings to another person. To start with, drawings in the streets attract people’s attention. Graffiti artists speak their ideas unobtrusive. They try to make people think about current problems. In addition, graffiti develop your imagination and creativity. A pattern should be unique, exotic and interesting to attract everyone to it.

However, some people believe that graffiti should not be allowed by government. First of all, artists of graffiti spoil sights and private property.

Moreover, graffiti influence teenagers’ mood. As usual pictures illustrate violence and robbery.

I cannot agree with the point of view mentioned above. Firstly, nowadays graffiti artists draw their pictures not in public places. For instance, they bright up underground passes and make them beautiful. Secondly, graffiti not always portray illegal actions. Often drawings tell the viewer about different problems in life. To my view, graffiti is one of the best activity for teenagers. Using bright colors and imagination influence their behavior beneficially.

To sum it up, I am still convinced that graffiti is a form of self-expression. Nobody should forbid anyone to express his emotions and feelings.
