Banksy has been quiet for some time. Your patience has paid off. Appearing on the streets of London over the weekend was his newest and possibly most ambitious piece “One Nation Under CCTV”. The 3 story high painting portrays a red hooded child on a ladder doing a huge roller piece above the watchful eye of a policeman and canine. The genius of this piece is that it was painted behind a security fence directly in view of one London’s many CCTV cameras.

Years ago a friend from Australia showed me how to fold an English pound note in such a way that the image of the Queen becomes a dirty picture. If I remember correctly, this involved mainly her hair and the fold at her neck. Unfortunately I don’t remember how he did it. Does anybody know how to do it?!

LAist contributer Osmany Rodriguez found a few fresh new Banksy paintings near the New Beverly Cinema. As you may already know, Banksy is the elusive guerrilla street artist responsible for some of the most interesting art in the city (not to mention the entire world). He's a trickster figure who never shows his face, but joined Steve Jones in the Indie 103.1 studios earlier this week (that's how we know he's been in L.A. recently).
