1. What is your reaction to Bansky’s pieces? What are they saying? (Use specific examples in your response.) Do you agree or disagree with his message? Why?
~ My reaction ti Bansky's photo is, I was surprise by the coloring and movement it has going on. It looks like he hate relationship or something to be about to throw the flower that he has in his right hand. He also has an handkerchief over his mouth as if he is an gangster. I disagree with this message because you shouldn't be treating something or someone who has or didn't do anything wrong to you.  

2. Is graffiti art? Is tagging a building? Why do you think writers and artists often use pen names and go by alternate personas?
~ Yes, graffiti is art because, there are so many different kind of things that has a meaning the in graffiti writing. It shows other people talent and or maybe their giving out an message to the people out there that they just can't say it their self. 

3. To what extent do you think it is important to put your work in the public eye?
~ To let the world see what a person thinks and feels about them self. Also I think its important to put your work in public is because, maybe some artist wanted something more than just  a portrait in a a building where you may sometimes have to pay to even get to see it. Even though that is how people makes money.

This painting had me thinking of what the artist was thinking when he was painting it. It a peaceful beach in the summer where anyone and can go see and just have an walk on the beach. This painting always made me miss the summer in California, to walk on the beach, to hear the seagulls out there flying over my head.  I really like this painting because, it shows peacefulness, beauty, adventures, and love.
