This print by graffiti maverick Aroe is on art gloss paper finished with dripp varnish. The first 100 prints sold will be specially signed 'tagged' by Aroe himself.nbsp‘Licensed to Skill’, as the title wittily suggests, is a tribute to the Beastie Boys and their 1986 album ‘Licensed to Ill’. The print is of a photograph of Aroe painting his iconic 12ft by 68ft mural in Oxford Place, Brighton. The graffiti piece recreates the full album cover image of a Boeing 727 crashing head on into the side of a mountain like a snubbed out cigarette.nbspAroe created the plane after Beastie Boy Adam ‘MCA’ Yauch sadly passed away from cancer in 2012. Images of the work were used in Rolling Stone’s obituary and went viral overnight. Aroe, who was heavily influenced by the band in the 80’s, describes the print as “My memorial, paying my respect to the Beastie Boys.”nbspDiscover more in our blog postTwo New Releases from Graffiti Artist Aroe
