Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Yep he is supposedly from Bristol so his stuff is all over the place round here, the council keep painting over it with each anti graffiti drive.

He seems to have inspired a load of new artists and some places around Bristol Like Stokes Croft for example, is like a graffiti academy, great stuff.

At Glastonbury Festival last year, he made 'stonehenge' out of portaloos painted grey. Looked great!
