Banksy

I absolutely LOVE Banksy Art. Any street art is great, however how Banksy portrays his art on the streets is by far my favorite. I think its great how we can make any kind of statement with our art skills. I would love to use stencils at some point, however they seem very difficult to me.

Though I don't do this type of art, it definitely inspires me to keep going with my own art. I love painting with acrylic paint, but my favorite mediums to use are pencils or charcoal.

This photo is a Lily drawn with charcoal. I like using charcoal, because I find it easy to shade and bring out certain details of the object being drawn. For me, it's easier to get a more in-depth perception in a drawing using charcoal.
