Banksy...................................................................................... art or graffiti?

John of "Sinbad and I on the Loose" who I now consider a friend (you will have to ask him if he thinks the same) has just posted an image of graffiti sprayed on a wall in his town.
The image was stenciled.

This style of graffiti art in the UK is synonymous with an artist named Banksy.

 His dark humoured work is inspired by modern politics always carrying some form of ethical message.

Banksy's first artwork appeared in urban areas of Bristol throughout the 1990s.

 After making the transition from spray cans to stencils his reputation grew  with his work starting to appear in areas of London.

 Combining a unique stencilling technique with his views as a political activist  his reputation has escalated over the years to a point where he is now regarded as a common household name.

  Since then he has travelled the globe leaving his mark in major cities worldwide.

Banksys' art images are all over the internet... just google Banksy to see more.
