Interesting  Its got a Banksy look to it, but still hard to say if it is by him  So many artists now trying to copy his style. Do you think its Banksy? |

Im gonna say yes. It was Ben Eine's 40th birthday at the weekend and I hear there was a big bash with some famous names there. Banksy loves Hastings. The first thing that crossed my mind was some sort of Eine connection. Happy Birthday Ben! |

What would you say the message of the piece is? If you try really hard - it's possible to make sand castles on a pebble beach? |

Looks like a banksy to me. If it's not, it's a first class copy of his style imo.

"Exit Through The Gift Shop" DVD release in 15 days could this be the start of Banksy doing loads of new street pieces across the UK? |

Dont get me wrong, I have no problem with that we all love to see his street work no matter why/Where/How. |

I'm gonna say it is the great man. Hastings has a cracking art scene these days and Mr B certainly would have friends in the town, Eine etc... Slightly gutted as I was in the town on Friday night and didnt see this, I bet I was standing next to him in the Dragon bar..... ;D.
I will take a look this coming weekend. Any idea where it is? Obviously on one of the sea walls....
