A little bit of joy to add to a utility box.  I enjoy urban art when it is done correctly.  Urban art is not graffiti in the sense that most people see it; the limp dick wannabes placing their name to mark their territory.  Urban art is striking.  Even mere words spray painted on a wall in block letters, such as Banksy's messages, can cause visual excitement.  Unfortunately, urban art is connected to vandalism in most cases.  The vandalism is often part of the message of whatever it is the artist is presenting.

However, there are some places that have, "approved" graffiti.  Where establishments and government entities allow someone to do their thing on their things.  Such is the case here.
