I know I know, I already wrote a blog about Banksy. But you have got to admit that his work is out of this world. I have never seen anyone use as much creativity and satire and him. I think his work comes along with a lot of humor. I love how his mind thinks. Ever since I was a little girl, I would always think about making pieces like him, but it was nearly impossible! haha His ideas were something that no one else has ever thought of. I'm very pleased to say that Banksy is one of the most creative artists today. I loved how he was never conceited about his work. He simply remained serious for a very long while. Banksy started as a freehand graffiti artist 1992-1994[9] as one of Bristol's DryBreadZ Crew (DBZ), writers Kato and Tes.[10] He was inspired by local artists and his work was part of the larger Bristol underground scene. From the start he used stencils as elements of his freehand pieces, too.[11] By 2000 he had turned to the art of stencilling after realising how much less time it took to complete a "piece." He claims he changed to stencilling whilst he was hiding from the police under a train carriage, when he noticed the stencilled serial number[12] and employing this technique soon became more widely noticed for his art around Bristol and London.[12]
Banksy's stencils feature striking and humorous images occasionally combined with slogans. The message is usually anti-war, anti-capitalist or anti-establishment. Subjects include rats, monkeys, policemen, soldiers, children, and the elderly.
