You might think that defacing public structures in the name of art would be an activity restricted to adults and mature themes, but the childish graffiti and street art in the slideshow below will prove you wrong.
From subverted Disney street art to cartoonish graffiti that's meant for an adult audience, this childish street art is sure to make you relive your childhood.
Implications - Lately, street art has become more than just signature tags and large murals. Veterans like Space Invader and André are few of the key artists who have stripped down the gritty aesthetics of graffiti by spraying childlike designs. Even though dark images are popular, brands can take advantage of themes by reinventing them as more accessible to the mainstream consumer.
