I just thought that u guys would find this really interesting.
The truth is, i do a little bit of graffiti here and there. This guy is probably the biggest influence that made me want to do it.
My best description of his work is...that it isnt like other graffiti.
He's turned down all these huge companies like Microsoft and Pepsi to do their advertising.
i suggest you check his website, he has some really mad designs and stuff.
(If u like that kind of thing.)

Totally agree, Banksy Rules... and he does these excellent little handprinted pocket books full of his work...little works of art; I'm currently waiting for his new one to come in the post...it's so cool when you can buy stuff more or less directly from the artist...
There's a load of cool graf going on in europe nowadays...check out Tristan Manco's Stencil Graffiti books for some excellent examples...I like this new stencilled graf style as it's not so dominated by that whole New York/HopHop vibe that infects a lot of graf...subject-wise it's a lot more varied...
