F - Favourite Artist

My favourite artist of all time is a graffiti artist from New York called Sento. I like his book so much, the documentation is so precise in the way it has so many quotes from the artist himself, in the graffiti world it is hard to talk to the artists because they work at night and dont want to be known by face for obvious reasons but it was nice to actually read things about the life of the artist I learnt so much about the dangers of this life as well as how addictive the rush can be. The reason that he is my favourite is not just because of his outstanding piece after piece it is more that he has stuck with street art even up to this year, to me it really shows how much he loves what he does. He inspires me in a lot because I would love to still be putting my style of graffiti onto paper at the age of 40 and be loving every minute of it. Throughout the years he has adapted his style which is something that amazes me because ive always found it hard to change mine that frequently, he will do a new piece of artwork and I will question that it is actually his because of the change each time. My favourite piece of work that he has done is probably the same one that is on the front cover and the reason I like it so much is because its such a large piece and I think the large the artwork is the more effect it can have on people, its the sort of size where you think how can you even afford that much paint? I like the basic clear sea blue colour he uses to fill the letters and the lava colour for the outline and surroundings.
