haha yes
A level street art.
It would be interesting to know why people find this 'awesome'. Maybe because it ticks the boxes of familiarity (angel - tick, soldier - tick, mortality - tick)...I appreciate art is relative and ideas are often nicked from other artists. But there is no originality whatsoever in this.

New (and awesome) Paul Insect piece, by twist65 on Oct 28, 2009 14:01:04 GMT 1, sigh... people find it awesome because it's an extremely well executed, well balanced and striking image.
You either like the image or you don't (I do), but I don't get slating it for unoriginality of subject matter.
I'm pretty certain that angels and soldiers can be traced back in art well before Mr Micallef picked up a paint brush, does that make him 'A level' too? Maybe you should copy and paste your argument on the Shep Soup Can thread?

i did actually regret typing awesome,looking at it again i should have typed "i like it"
it's a simplistic image which appeals to me ,hence my being into street art.As for micallef using the image of a soldier post 9/11 ? well it wasn't exactlly groundbreaking then ,was it? and were still at war now.
