The graffiti spray stencil on this exterior junction box is what I was referring to in my previous upload.

The illustration is very typical of the Bristol born, well paid, & supposedly anonymous Mr Banksy, see another unclassified illustration here.

I imagine this upload will get another unenthusiastic response but I like it, the little boy giving you the finger makes me smile . . . Have a nice day .. Phil. :o)

I suppose you're referring to the Kid with The Sore Finger.

Hard to believe Spray Stenciling would be considered Great Art Work.
But then who am I to Judge the Great Banksy.
Thanks for sharing this Junction Box Uncle Phil.

Thank you for sharing this, a pleasant and amusing surprise.

I must confess that out of all the types of public abuse sprayed across all lands, stencil art at least gives me the impression that thought, craft and effort went into an 'artistic' spraying, rather than an indiscriminate tagging. Can't say that I'd have the patience or the dexterity to do an original - I gave up in kindergarten, as potato prints were just too technical.

These stencils are to me like 'Where's Waldo?' - you just never know where they'll crop up next.

So, now that I've seen this posting, I'll hang a copy of the two headed skeleton that appeared on a traffic light control box the other day.

Whether it is a Bansky or not, I think you might have done better concentrating on the box a little more, the surrounds make it look messy. Novel idea. Keep posting them.

I thought this might be what you were referring to, but I couldn't see it all that close up enough. He is quite an artist, but does anyone see him doing it?

A good question Cindy. :o)

I reckon he's often given special permission to create his artwork free from interference, or prosecution ! The man's made a absolute fortune through media publicity, & is far from the anti establishment figure he wishes people to believe.
Oh by the way crysophilax / Chris I do have an extreme close up of just the artwork but Banksy work is usually shown amongst it's surroundings, & besides that I'm concerned about image piracy :o( thanks for your comment.

I think it is very artistic...some love it some don't,but it does spark some controversy and gets people voice their opinion:)
