Crash by Anastazia
Crash (John Matos) is a graffiti artist in New York city. At 13 he starts spray painting the trains with full images rather than just tagging them. He is often called a pioneer of the Graffiti art movement. His work establishes "a visual link between street life and established society". He later moved to canvas but retained his graffiti roots. In the 1980s he had exhibits all over the world. Later in the nineties he did a series of painted guitars, the most famous were they ones for Eric Clapton that he used on his 2001 tour. As the time continues on he has continued to stay relevant to the pop culture around him. He does pop art in every decades' time.

This is pop art-ish and I like it! I like all the bright colors and the faces are interesting. The colors in a way clash with eachother and make for a good composition.
