Nick Walker conquered the art world through his identifiable style and brilliantly funny humor. His artworks are best described as sophisticated and endlessly desirable, and it’s no wonder they jazz up any wall. As a forerunner of the British street art phenomenon, Nick Walker’s art has become a blueprint for hundreds of emerging artists. His work is constantly evolving and remains innovative, modern, and thought-provoking.

This masterful stencil artist is famous for characters such as “The Vandal”, a formally dressed bowler hat-wearing person, and the “Moona Lisa”. The Vandal character is born from a personal experience when, walking through the streets of London, he saw a man under a golf umbrella, smoking crack.

The other character, La Moona Lisa, raised and established him to a level of great street artists. Now that we all that, let’s take a closer look at 5 astonishing works by this street art legend.
