Very nice piece.
It could well be Banksy, and if it's not him it's definitely someone going to a fair bit of effort to knock off his style.

the feet look like banksy - but the faces and hair look bit different from normal........ especially when you look at the silhouette stuff in LA

Fantastic piece. Is it banksy? I would say.... yes - but that is just a guess

I am 90% certain it is. Slightly different style though but has all the other Hallmarks

Agreed it is a great peice - i would also guess banksy as quite a bit of his recent stuff has been interacting with the environment
e.g. the girl knocking coins out of the phone box and the girl sliding down the drainpipe

This from its first photographer at: www.flickr.com/photos/amyeee/2307554918/in/pool-banksyamyeee says: I like it too... I especially like how he's used the ugly street cabling to form the flag pole. This stencil interacts with the street furniture, so you can tell he's scouted for the location. It's also a couple of blocks away from the Islington Tesco, so it's in the perfect spot  |

could have looked cool with a proper bag used, nice bit of movement. Not sure how long the bag would have lasted before it hit the bay though?

Not sure how long the bag would have lasted before it hit the bay though? can you imagine, 1500 individual genuine, Banksy issue carrier bags, only £6.99 each........ and as they were genuine banksy tesco bags.... must be worth a fortune....... |

Banksy humour, Mantis faces. Strange that Banksy has been doing all these silhouettes recently then goes back to his older style.

Simple but brilliant. My monies on Banksy.
Seems he's awoken from a coma and gone bombing mental.
And about time to, I wonder what's fired and inspired this new found freedom?
I recently heard a great statement by a graffer ''the day you stop painting on the street is the day your considered retired''
