1984 he started his graffiti carrer as "Mr.W."

Hundred thousands of viewers could enjoy his graffiti artwork from the trains daily. Traditional galleries never had that many visitors.

That made the challenge of painting in the dark worth the effort. The name Mr.W spread throughout the city.

Mr.W shared this place with other graffiti artists & turned it into Hamburgs first "Graffiti Hall Of Fame", where everybody was welcome to paint graffiti legally!

Painting in the daylight right in front of a large audience, brought Werner "Mr.W" Skolimowski even more citywide recognition & opportunities.

Mr.W was the first one to paint the new "Graffiti Hall Of Fame" Volksparkstraße at Kieler Straße in Hamburg.

Painting at daytime with no rush at all, made it possible to paint larger, cleaner & much more detailed then ever before.

The size of this big mural painting is approximately 23 x 66 feet (7 x 20 meters).

To save spray paint cans & time, Mr. W filled all the bigger areas with latex wall paint first, using a big paint roller.
He used the spray paint cans only for the small details, graffiti designs & the outlines.
This way it took about 60 gallons of latex wall paint, but only 40 cans of spray paint to finnish this huge wall mural.
