Timothy Sean Johnston is one of the artists included in Gallery5's current exhibition of graffiti and graffiti-ish work. I think a number of these artists are taggers and better known to many by their tags. Can't match names with tags here, they are all wanted.
The opening was fun - the gallery erected a big wall out front for anybody to paint on, good bands, the police, beer, and good art. Timothy Sean Johnston (more work below) was one of my favorites, along with Oura Sananikone. I'll post more artists later.
This is an excellent show and the second-best graffiti show in town. The best is here. Does anybody have a name or alias for this artist? I am a huge fan.
UPDATE 6/4/07: the mystery artist linked to above is known as Judith Supine, now "famous" in New York.

the paper is a sculpture major. i know who he is but not his name, he was dating this asian girl last year. it was a project he did for class then took it to being graffiti pretty soon after that. i don't know if you remember seeing the robot made out of parts of trashcans, all white about 7 feet tall. well that's him.
carla - you are absolutely right.
