The Product


The Product The streets are my canvas “Paste in one pocket, posters in another, stickers in my backpack, brush in hand, going out, to show I can, I can do what it takes, to stick it the wall with that bottle of paste, I can slap a sticker with the palm of my hand, look up at the camera and show them my hand, to say hey it’s me Wilma, on the streets, never given up, never meet defeat.“


The Product


The Product “The beauty of street art is that you don’t need an expensive canvas or frame to display your creative expression.”
