The Graffiti Artist Who Rose to Fame

Jun 15, 2009

There are these rare talents who really don’t expect that their inborn talents would shoot themselves to fame, such as this former graffiti artist known as KAWS.

KAWS is actually a nickname Brian Donnelly used in all the years that he had been practicing his career as an artist. He started out by being a graffiti artist then moved on to designing simple booth advertisements, billboards and bus shelters but his “X” designs surely made him rose to popularity – you may probably see his artwork already, as it had been used in several products.

This guy was featured on CBS News previously this year, but I was able to know him more through this video I got today. He was not keen at first in getting featured in art galleries, but I think now is the right time for him to get famous (and even rich).

    Well, he is actually rewarded handsomely for his efforts. If you had heard the video, this guy earns as much as $100,000 for his work.
