He does like an elephant, they have turned up in his artworks consistently over the years.

I may be reading too much into it

Oh look another bloody elephant, and possibly one of the earliest versions of heavy weaponry from mid 90s. He mis-spelt weaponry early on, never a strong point... spelling:

Early Banksy Art, by met on Oct 30, 2019 17:20:09 GMT 1, Similar in style to the work he put up in 1999 at the Carlton Arms Hotel in NYC: I love it when people come out and say he cant paint because of using stencils.. 20 years ago he was making work that's still better than 99% of his haters.
With this use of comparative language about making work, it sounds as if you're suggesting Banksy's art is disliked by a large number of his fellow artists.
Although I'm unaware of many who've been openly critical, it would be interesting to hear the ones whose work you believe is better than Banksy's โ namely, which specific "hater" artists you place in the 1% category.

If you head to MPC in wardour st they might let you in to look at the stencil he did on the wall when they finished post production.. the guardsman pissing, they apparently went mental at first but of course now itโs under Perspex pride of place..

This isn't about who I think is better or not, theres a known rift of graffiti artists hating on stencils and banksy in particular as it's not 'proper art' or 'he cant paint'. When the fact is that he was a top notch skilled writer long before he touched a stencil.
