He is an established graffiti artist and had a great amount of influence on artists such as Banksy. 

His work is extensively published by Black Rat Publishing.

His paintings often feature a gentleman called “vandal” with a bowler hat, which featured in a video by The Black Eyed Peas.

Walker’s signature “vandal” figure, an alter-ego who consistently appears in a black suit and bowler hat, is representative of the artist’s desire to imbue his detailed pieces with irony and humour.

Walker’s paintings now sell for large sums of money. In 2006 a spray painted work titled “Moona Lisa” sold for an unexpected £54,000 at Bonhams in London. At a solo exhibition at London’s Black Rat Gallery in 2008, £750,000 worth of art sold. Besides, there were dozens of people camping overnight in front of the gallery.

Walker was a major participant in the 2011 See No Evil event in Bristol, where he painted “perhaps the most striking piece at the event”. One of his gentleman with bowler hat on the side of a tower block in Nelson Street.

Walker still lives in Bristol and is best known for merging freehand work with stencilled imagery. 

As a forerunner of this technique, he believes that the combination allows him to “juxtapose almost photographic imagery with the rawness which evolved from conventional graffiti styles.” 

In addition to traditional street art, Walker famously recreated the graffitied streets of New York for Stanley Kubrick’s 1999 film, Eyes Wide Shut.
