Chicago based Street Artist and satirist Don’t Fret was among the many art pilgrims in Miami this month who got a bunch of work up in the streets. Occupying an unusual place among average Street Art styles and themes, Don’t Fret labors with comedy and caricature, making you crack a smile while you wait for the light to turn green.

Like any good comedian, he mines the everyday and mundane for the common occurrences and situations and makes fun of them with and gives you a little insight. He also relishes a bit of wordplay. But dang who don’t? Of course it’s all up to you and how you feel on that day. If you just got fired from your hamburger flipping gig, you may not dig it, and you’ll think these were done by some 12 year old toy with no drawing chops. Which is totally not true. He’s 13.
Here’s a BSA exclusive collection of new Miami work by Don’t Fret for your Saturday cartoon festival.
