Kid Krishna is a very versatile artist whose portfolio includes the simplest roller-painted pieces through to complex graffiti writing with the inclusion of characters and objects, blended to perfection. This piece is one of his more complex pieces and speaks of a very busy mind – there is a lot going on here.

The cryptic writing spells out CRIE, although I confess that I have difficulty seeing it. The colour palette, as always is thoughtfully put together, and the whole piece has an organic feel to it. Even the background is treated to a bit of ‘cracked-wall’ magic. I have noticed that of late he has been including a ‘No Frills’ stamp on his work, and I guess he is now a welcome addition to the crew. It is difficult to convey what a superb piece of graffiti writing this is, largely because it is unconventional and doesn’t really obey any rules.
