Courageous street artists leave a thrilling mark on society. Bold and stealthy spray can heroes, they vigilantly patrol our streets, strike when inspired, and are gone long before their identity can be revealed on social media.

They turn dull and dreary walls into conversation starters at the most accessible art gallery - no exhibition opening invitation needed.

Using our streets as a platform, they influence thousands with thought-provoking content, creative commentary on world events, and remarkable pieces that enhance neighborhoods.

Discovering new street art is a huge passion of mine. During my last trip to Istanbul, I fell madly in love with French street artist Guaté Mao. His portraits are striking with eyes so deep they look beyond your soul, keeping the secrets of the street forever safe.

See how many pieces you can find the next time you wander the streets of Istanbul! Which one is your favorite? Comment below!
