Banksy Inspires a 10 Year Old Vandal
A 10-year old little girl watched Banksy's Exit Through the Gift Shop and wanted to become like him.
As her dad said, "I tried to explain that while the art was fun and the story was great, vandalism isn't a good thing. But she was smitten." Click the jump to find out what happened
The dad tried to steer the burgeoning young vandal towards something less intrusive than painting public property, so she hand painted rocks, and then placed those in public places around the city.
Banksy haters need not even read it, but we think this is a cool little story about the appeal of street art. For those who want to know more, you can read the full story HERE
