I think Graffiti art in the right place would be pretty awesome. The genre took off when we were teens and has grown in sophistication since. I like some of the styles out there but I hate gang scrawl.

I used to be quite the graffitiist in my childhood, but this guy takes the cake.

For some reason the dark silhouettes and the smiley faces reminded me of Bad Company

I actually seen one of his graffitis in London (in a pretty bad shape, but it was there).

The thing is, if he is caught, although he is a great artist with fans, he will be charged with vandalism! We actually got the opportunity to do this in art in school.
