I remember finding this book, which showed a New York subway train that had been covered in so much graffiti you couldn't recognise it was a train. I thought, ‘I want to do that… how do you do that?'

The art that I do is for the people. It is about engaging a new audience who wouldn't necessarily go to art galleries and museums and painting on the street is the best way to do that.

Street artists want to add something to the environment. They consider the audience, whereas graffiti writers don't care about anyone except themselves, they do it purely for the kick.

When I got into graffiti, it was the most-exciting art form and it changed the course of my life.

I'm a bit too old for anarchy. If I was younger I might be more political but I'm married with kids and I've got a mortgage.

I love to paint and beautify the most unexpected of places - I've painted everything from doorways to trains but have always wanted to do something really huge and different.
