Banksy is a renowned graffiti artist who lives in Brittain. There is no other name for him but "Banksy". This is because his work is by law, illegal. However, the people of Brittain appreciate his pieces. His works are mainly characterized by their elements of rebellion, and revolt against violence. Many of his graffiti works are seemingly violent at first look, but actually invoke peace. Banksy also uses already existant objects like drains or signs, and adds onto them with spray paint to make a unique picture. This artist inspires me because he uses his creativity to spread his beliefs.
