I have always been very fascinated with London, partly because It seems similar to The United States so its not too far out of my comfort zone, but I really do love watching movies, reading books, and meeting people from London. Graffiti art is huge in London, with artists like King Robo, Ozmo, Milo Tchais, Evol and my favorite, Banksy. I am hoping to see one of his pieces on the streets when I am there! My art teacher (who I was in love with) introduced me to his work and it is so cool I thought I would share some of this stuff!
My all time favorite, which I assume most of you have seen at some time is a mural of John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson from Pulp Fiction, holding banana's instead of Guns. This is one of my favorites because it's also from my favorite movie by Tarantino.
Here is a sample of his work:
