Slinkachu

Slinkachu (b. 1979) is a British street artist, photographer and blogger. He is best known for his Little People, in 2006 he has been installed at various locations in London. His art has been presented in a series of exhibitions in London and Norway.
Despite what his picture says, he would have had to actually write on the wall for this picture.i like this shot for the humour of what is written on the wall,
 For this bizarre shot he wouldn't need many large props, just extra detail to some very small tenticles.
 The only props he would have had to use would have been the coffee cup and the toy track, creating a humourous scene of things which would actually happen.
