SAN ANTONIO โ A San Antonio man is hoping to inspire others to stay creative in life through his graffiti art throughout the city. โMy mom said I started drawing on the wall when I was three and I never stopped,โ Soupe said. I also learned the process and procedures about art when my stepfather would take me to museums and give me books. โI was like, โI am going to paint it bigger and put it everywhere!โ That is what graffiti is.
