Well said!

There is so much money to be made from so little that every smart suit is looking for someone they can make oodles out of. This means hyping artists and hyping value. I can think of several examples where shrewd management have sent prices sky high. Charming Baker? Brainwash is different because he did it himself. And the hype remains.

Rich Simmons ๐ฌ๐ง Pop Art โข Street Artist โข Print Release , by Cedric Mnich on Sept 26, 2011 9:00:37 GMT 1, Very interesting article. Looks like "Launching new hype artist 101". Every ingredient should be there for success : a network of international galleries with an influent owner. Street artist. Press review saying the guy is the new Banksy. Whatever the kid paints, there is far worse way to get into Artworld.
Any link to watch what the kid paints ? Because the Queen + heart tag has nothing original whatsoever

"The stencils take days to create and are all done by hand, from the drawing with a pencil to cutting with a scalpel knife stage. Every piece is a labour of love and has taken years to perfect and master the art of stencilling."
Drawing ? really ? :-)
The William and Kate Pistols look really cool.

"The stencils take an absolute lifetime to cut out - anything from 10 to 20 hours depending on how detailed it is"
I just love the paper flapping about as he stencils the image. Nice crisp edges ....
Good Luck to him though - his original 'cause' re mental health rehabilitation (and discussion) is a good one.
A cross between Rolf Harris and Banksy - not sure I would want to be known for that. Its a slur on Rolf! ;D
