At first, the one and only street artist I know is Banksy, which is famous for his “Flower Thrower (Love is in the Air)”.

Yes, he’s Ernest Zacharevic. Ernest Zacharevic conveys the culture and community of a place, adding artistic interventions to different cities across the world. the lithuanian-born artist blends fine art techniques with a passion for public space, working in the mediums of oil paint, stencil, spray, and sculpture to communicate clever and complex concepts.
