These new drawings from Banksy still retain the irreverent nature of his work, which is why I love them. They were released on his official website, and while they rock my world, I am not going to go all artsy and over analyze them.
Roller Rat is already known and loved by Banksy fans, but personally having endured many a boring private viewing, I prefer the piece entitled “Suits Looking At A Knob” and the group seated around the table “TV Monster.”
These images also reveal Banksy’s handwriting… and if I’m not mistaken, it looks like he uses a Mac too!
