The Courtalds Girl painting was based on a picture taken during a night out in the 1970s
To some, it's modern art. To others, it's nothing more than graffiti.
But like them or loathe them, a series of paintings across Flintshire have certainly got people talking.
And they have also had people wondering... just who is the "Flintshire Banksy?
The Banksy of Flintshire reignites the question of is it street culture or vandalism pure and simple?”
End Quote Richard Dunn Deeside College The artist - or culprit as some might term him - calls himself Random, but he has been likened to the Bristol-based Banksy whose political and satirical graffiti on street walls has made him famous - if anonymous.
Doubtless, many people know who Banksy is, but their reluctance to identify him furthers his fame.
The same too, might be said of Random.
Flint Town councillor Vicky Perfect claims to know who he is.
She features in Random's latest creation, a painting based on workers at the former Courtalds factory site at Greenfield Dock.
She said: "The BBC local North East Wales website set up a page on Courtalds, from a historical point of view, and they used a picture of me and some of the girls on a night out years ago.
"Random, as he likes to be known, was trawling through the BBC website and he saw the picture.
The signature might be well-known - but who is the artist? 
Vicky Perfect (pictured middle in the picture) has given Random her approval 
Police said it was an effective way to get their message across Graffiti is being used in a South Yorkshire town to help deter people from drinking excessively over the Christmas period.
The messages are being jet washed onto pavements in Barnsley using a method known as 'clean' graffiti, which will fade over a six week period.
The campaign is a joint effort between Barnsley council, the police and the NHS to promote safe drinking.
Police said it was an effective way to get their message across.
Ch Insp Shaun Morley of South Yorkshire Police said: "To me this is a very efficient way of using the funding we have access to.
"It gets the message across very effectively and if it reduces crime and disorder and prevents people getting injured.
"It will save money in terms of the resources the emergency services have to utilise over the Christmas period."
'Positive move' Dennis Griffiths, landlord of the Miners Rest pub in Barnsley and former president of the Licensed Victuallers Association, welcomed the idea but said he had reservations about its effectiveness.
"It's not going to do any harm, it's a positive move. The problem is it's only going to get the message through to the people who are responsible anyway."
The graffiti will also appear on streets in Doncaster and Sheffield as part of the campaign that runs throughout December around South Yorkshire.
