<p>OMG! Too funny! </p>

<p>It wasn't until I saw IrvineRenter's post on Spanish Lace did I ever come across a piece which truly intrigued me. Or rather the first piece where I immediately felt I had to have an embellished print:</p>

<p>I emailed Banksy and asked him to come up with a design for the back of the IHB Shirts and here it is....</p>

<p>now, this is my kind of thread!</p>

<p>i'm a huge banksy and shepard fairey (obey) fan. other favs in the lowbrow scene are FAILE, david choe, dalek, dave kinsey, lucy maclauchlin, kozik, biskup, etc.</p>

<p>gregory euclide is also a favorite of mine:

<p>I like Hockney. Here's <em>Pearblossom Hwy</em>. It's the road to Vegas, in case you are not familiar...</p>

I am not sure of the artist, but my favorite is the genius that came up with this
