Graffiti legend Chris Ellis aka Daze, began painting trains in the South Bronx in 1977. He remembers the colorful masterpieces from that time, the excitement behind the color and the impression they produced. His graffiti led to being included in Martha Cooper's street art bible Subway Art and cult graffiti films such as Style Wars and Spray Can Art. He is also known for being one of the first writers to successfully transition from painting trains to painting canvases. Daze has contributed two murals to the Wynwood Walls including one inside the Wynwood Doors.
