Many times I find stencil graffiti more interesting (and provoking) than the other types of graffiti. These examples are from Venice, Italy (first) and Tallin, Estonia (the rest).

I quite like the second one.

I have a great book by Banksy. Awesome work and imagination.

Very nice, Olli. Despite the fact it can be used to deface things sometimes, I find graffiti to be fascinating. I've seen some interesting photos the actor Dennis Hopper took of graffiti in Germany (I believe). Really an unusual art form.

Interesting shots.

I've been considering getting Banksy's book, I really admire his work. The stencils he did in the west bank were amazing.

Saralonde and Adam, good to have your comments as well. Stencil graffiti is really art of its own.
