    HOUSTON -
    A vandal was captured on a cellphone video spray-painting a Picasso painting in a Houston museum.

    PHOTOS: Vandal caught on camera
    The video hit the Internet on Wednesday. It shows a man walking up to the original 1929 Pablo Picasso masterpiece inside the Menil Collection in Montrose. He is then seen using a stencil to spray-paint the word "conquista," which is Spanish for "couquer" on the painting before taking off...

    I was half expecting the vandal spray painting a gang sign or one of those murals you see on the freeways.

    Doesn't seem like the guy filming it just randomly came upon it.

    I wish they would catch the little unemployed b**** spray painting everything on Upper Washington/Camp Logan area with G.O.A.T.

    How original, ****ing scumbag. I hope you get a deer tick on your nuts and get Lyme disease. You're a waste to society anyways, no loss.

    I'm pretty sure it's a fake Picasso painting. Seriously no protection(glass) for their million dollars collections?

    At first I thought it could be a misguided intellectual with mental problems but finding out it's just a young douchebag makes me even angrier.

    "Art" stopped being about creativity and skill a while ago (except for a handful of cases). Doing douchetastic stuff like this is how you make your name as an "artist" these days.
