Romeo
I am a writer from Murcia, a city in the southeast of Spain. The people of Murcia are hard as stones, we are the Vikings of the south, you know!
I am proud of my city and my neighborhood, “El Infante”, the most prolific and stylish graffiti writers of Murcia emerged from the graffiti movement started here. It has always been a neighborhood with a lot of style.
When I was Young, at 90’s, it was under my house a big park with one of the most famous hall of fame in the city named “Las Fábricas”. But sadly, nowadays it doesn’t exist. So since I was young I liked graffiti and from 12-13 years old I tagged but only with takers, markers, etc … in my books and walls. I don’t remember when I started, but until 2004/2005 I didn’t do my first piece and since then I’m still here.
There are three persons who have influenced my graffiti. In my beginnings my paintbrother was CEORS (this guy is so fucking skilled), Later I met DINAS a.k.a. NIGER, a writer from the adjoining neighborhood. NIGER makes me explode all my potential and increase my style (I love this nigga). Finnaly, years later I met JHOEZ a.k.a DOLOR. No words for this writer. He is my Godfather. With him, I relaunched 450 CREW. Time after it became 450 COPS with NIGER, JHOEZ, CEORS, DASEN, WAKER, SILENT and SELVA.
About my style, is pure and hard wildstyle, no embellishments. I don’t like the pieces with a lot of effects or too many ornaments, I like more powerful letters and a clean fill color. I think less is more.
And finally, about writers that I admire, I think anyone who is able to leave me in shock when I see his/her work is worthy of my admiration.
My big inspiration is my beautiful woman, Roxana rose, thanks to her after fifteen years she has made graffiti even more fun,with her we paint under the same name of “SOULMATES”,it is not a crew,it is a feeling.
