He is an artist who merely uses graffitti as his medium of choice.As to selling out how the hell do you draw that inference?People have to eat and have a place to sleep.Art has always come at a price and too many artists have starved in garrets.Too right that he sells his work at the highest price he can.

Frankly I'd like to step back in time and buy a Van Gogh or two..He might not have died thinking he was despised as an artist then and I'd have a fantastic work of art.
