Question...

Is Fafi still doing street art? I used to adore her work, but now it's all over Adidas clothes, Mac cosmetics, and those Fafinette figurines?! Oh dear...

I never like to say that someone has "sold out" to fame and fortune. I am super happy for anyone that can turn their art into a successful career. There's just something about this that disappoints me.

What do you guys think?

I love Fafi's artworks too, but i am inclined to agree with you - oh dear.

I guess maybe when you've been doing something for quite a while and people start to show interest maybe you get to a point where you want to expand it as far as it can go and maybe you get some opportunities to work with certain people that you just can't say no to.

As long as you don't forget who you are and how you first started, and don't let the fame and fortune get to your head then i guess good for you for getting some recognition for your work.

Personally i wouldn't want to lend my name/work to something like Adidas lol. If you're a street artist, keep it street. Maybe Converse... but not Adidas lol.
