Kate Moss Mr Brainwash Graffiti

Kate Moss is the subject of a new artwork on Oxford Street. The brightly coloured mural has been created to promote the debut London exhibition of French street artist Mr Brainwash - real name Thierry Guetta, it will open at The Old Sorting Office on 5th August. 
Mr Brainwash is already a favourite of the fashion world, he painted a birthday portrait for LVMH boss Bernard Arnault.  He has also created album covers for Madonna and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. 

I thought his style of work looked familiar! 



Kate Moss has been a source of inspiration for artists for a while now, Marc Quinn's famous gold sculpture of the supermodel sold for over half a million at a Sotheby's auction in October last year. Lucien Freud's painting of Kate Moss has become iconic since its inception in 2003. 



Love this one! Little boy taking a photo then splashes of pink coming out, such a cool effect! Can he do my portrait of that please?
