Banksy

Work's been kind of slow for me this past week. I know as soon as I type this someone will come by with a huge project, but I'll take my chances. Anyways, thanks to my recent work pace I've come across tons of awesome websites and articles. One being the graffiti artist Banksy. I had seen his stuff before, as I'm sure you have, but didn't know how illusive he was until I watched this interview on you tube. It's hard not to love a social commentary presented in humor and artistic talent. And rats. Don't forget the rats. But my favorite works are the ones he done that incorporate the existing environment. It's one thing to sneak out paint a stencil on a high profile wall, but another to see a blemished wall, or scene, and realize what it's missing. Then go home and make the stencil, come back and make it right. I love that. I love Banksy. I may just have to get buy his book today. Here are a few of my favorites.
