I make passion fruit peppermint tea icepoles and remember how hot it was in Vietnam when I was riding up and down China Beach.

Leave all your troubles behind you (bring avos) and book China Beach.

No hangover, no worries, no work, a long walk, Mexican with the gang.

Where do we know you from?
On the gram, on the wall and in your dreams. Because a true artist digs deep and allows you to connect with them beyond the confines of social media & sleep.
What do you do with yourself?
During the day I'm Michael Bennett, product & graphic designer. But as night falls and coffee is poured I become an infamous, world famous, respected and revered illustrator known as Banksy.
Your mum gives you $20 as pocket money, what do you splurge on at the canteen?
How many hash-browns can you get for $20?
Favourite theme song?
German Naruto opening, do yourself a favour and look it up.
5 people you'd have over for dinner?
My grandma, My girlfriend, a white tiger, Barack Obama and Howard the duck
Favourite prank you've pulled?
Whats a prank?.......gotcha.
What’s your perfect Sunday?
I thought about writing something funny, but truth is the best Sunday is waking up late in bed with my lovely lady, then flicking on a couple episodes of the American Office just to get the day going. Followed by a strong coffee at a local shop, then hopping in the car for a drive up into the Victorian mountains obeying speed limits, obviously. After that all i'd want to do is sit down, get comfy and do some drawing until I remember it’s almost Monday then franticly decide if I should make the most of what's left of Sunday and stay up all night, or get a good night's sleep and prepare for the week like an adult… I never do the latter.
