Banksy getting portrait drawn in Times Square NYC
while on a recent business trip in new york city i encountered this strange scene of what appears to be the street artist Banksy getting his portrait drawn, as i recorded what was happening, a woman in a green army jacket was shooting photographs nearly the whole time. Another random person attempted to buy the drawing and the british security guard took her contact info. As the cops looked on more suspiciously, Banksy appears to make haste and pays the artist some money. i chased him down the street as my battery died on my damn camera, only to see him and the black man duck into a cab.

Here's one thing about Banksy that everyone needs to remember; He doesn't want YOU to see him. It would ruin everything he's worked so hard to maintain. He's mainly a night owl and he has the ability to get in and get out without anyone noticing. There's a good reason that his paintings sell for what they do beside the fact their great pieces. He does it out of anonymity which adds to the allure.

Pretty sure Banksy doesn't walk around with Banksy printed on his clothes. The guy is an Art Ninja. Why would he wear a hoody with his name on it? When is the last time you saw a celebrity of anybody wear a shirt with their name on it? Doesn't happen. My money would be Banksy is the one doing the drawing of one of his mates in a bad disguise. That hair was obviously fake.

I'm going to weigh in here, the dude drawing is certainly not banksy. Based on the shape of his hands and ethnicity that is. If you watch 'exit through the giftshop' and study banksy's hands in the interviewing process, you may also see a similarity between the sitter's (shown here) and those of the elusive man there. Could be nothing, could also be a brazen act from the enigma himself. This is my first comment ever and I don't mean to be offensive to anyone just donating my valueless opinion. Peace and love.

He likes insulting cops. The advertisement he films is for Boars Head deli meats, and he pans straight to the two cops. I think Banksy is the one filming this and the whole thing is an art piece.
Amazing piece, the guy with the real credibility was only a couple feet away from the guy with “branding” and “security.” Things that we expect.
That not him he is watching this happening so he is somewhere round love this guy all about the art
What about if he's really Banksy because he thinks everybody would think he's not?
How much did the artist charge?
Actually, i have learned that Banksy is famous for once having his portrait drawn in the park while wearing a black ski mask.

This is not Banksy. He is a mystery but that is most definitely not the answer to that mystery. The portrait painter is more likely banksy than the one getting the portrait.

The real Banksy is the ink on that canvas
not banksy and why would you ever know him?? Just enjoy his art. If he wants that everybody know him he would do so!
What if Banksy drew the portrait and hired the two to pretend to be him and his fearless London security force.
A portrait drawing by Banksy ^^

Banksy is not the guy or the drawer or the black guy. I even think the lady was planted there and was speaking to him on the phone to make sure everything was going to plan. Banksy wasn’t ever there.
That's not banksy. Unless that's Paul Horner. If you watch the video where his painting in a London auction was shredded, you can see him standing there watching.
Wow....really respect art!!!! Who cares what he look like? Just keep doing ART?
Its one of the guys from the hit TV show Sabotage .
There he is with his hoodie on, Good he's gone for the Frank Zappa look.
one thing. there are a lot of wannabes out there. not all street art marked with banksy, is in fact from banksy. and this video is just a troll. a very bad one though.
people actually think thats him?
I bet you it was Banksy who was the artist as kind of a statement about the sincerest kind of flattery
is that a wig and fake stash?

BANKSY would never wear a hoodie with his name on it. The most anonymous artist ever doing the most narcissistic thing ever. Doesn’t make sense, extremely out of character. Calling BS
Neither the artist or the Guy whose portrait is drawn is Banksy
y i feel that bansky set all this up and is in one the apartments looking down t laughing
If anything, I'd say the guy drawing is Banksy. You can obviously tell the disguise the guy is wearing and guards accent does seem a bit....forced.
That was Robert Del Naja, 3D with a wig and mustache. Have a look atbhis stance, weight and nose, same guy 100%
Wanted for Sandwich fraud, lol :46
No,Banks looks stranger than him.
got his security
He shirt doesnt say Bansky, it says Baksy. What does that tell you!
That's really good
Not him.
Banksy is dressedto look like Frank Zappa.
I think it was banksy with fack mustache
Banksy is the assistant.

Banksy is so so so sick. Dig deep in this website and look at the terms and shit. Grossdomesticproduct.com. Nothing was ever on sale. Just another exhibit
North London ...with an American accent...yes Banksy possible sketching portrait
Wonderful
Bob Smith, any connection between Bob and Roberta Smith the England artist? Hrrmmmn? Banksy created this video under the pseudo name I bet. But who knows really?
Lol yeah that ain't him / or any of them. Funny though and wouldn't surprise me if one of them was around somewhere..

Banks would have his face covered as his identity is unknown and he wouldn’t be wearing a hoodie in the middle of the street with ‘BANKSY’ on it would he ? That’s kind of selling the fact that he is banksy if he was which it obviously isn’t
Deffo not Banksy!
The artist is banksy
Are people this gullible to think that's Banksy just because that name is on his hoodie and he's pretending to be him as a prank or to get attention?
Banksy would never reveal anytime soon who he or she is.... he or she is facing some real charges so I'm sure he or she not going to just throw his or hersself out there like that this is definitely a fake
a point is that you can label something banksy and people will open their wallets.
