Banksy

Updates

Banksy took to the streets yesterday in Margate, UK, with a Valentine's day special. As confirmed this morning by the artist via his Instagram, Valentine's Day Mascara is his latest conversation-sparking mural.

However, as fast as it appeared, already a vital component of the piece has now been removed according to BBC news.
