Don't you just love when a day brings a fabulous surprise...
Today, was one of those!
I stumbled on the amazing stencil graffiti artist, Nick Walker, from Bristol, UK.
Nick is credited with introducing stencil graffiti art to Bristol in early 1980's and thus influencing
Banksy.
And I didn't just discover Nick...I discovered him painting live in front of the famous Paris auction house Drouot.
Drouot has an auction tomorrow featuring established urban artist...Nick's work included.
Soon, the canvas was covered in layers of multi colored numbers...
Then...added his famous "Vandal" character...
The Vandal appears in Nick's series...popping up in paintings of Hong Kong, Taj Mahal, London, New York...a true world traveler!
More stencils, more color....more special!
The empty paint cans and empty coffee cans grew and grew...
