Peter Gibson is a street artist in Montreal, Canada who goes by the name "Roadsworth." He paints on roads, walkways, walls, and parking lots all over his community. He was motivated by the need of more bike paths, so he started his stencil technique art. I am inspired by the way Roadsworth puts a spin on everyday things. He's turning the world into an art museum. To me, typical graffiti looks like random characters and scribbles. Roadsworth uses lines already painted by the town and turns them into a story. I'm pulled in by the way he builds onto what's been there. I think it would be really cool to see his art in real life, to see if people stop walking or stop what they're doing to look at it. I think it's even more rebellious and cooler than graffiti on trains and brick walls because you can paint the train over again but there was never any paint in the middle of the road, so you're forced to just let it fade away by itself unless you want to repave the street.
