“Graffiti is illegal,” Jansen captioned the smiling selfie on Instagram.
The picture shows Jansen and a friend in front of a graffiti mural tagged in Nyack, New York, about 30 miles north of New York City.
It is unclear if Jansen and his friend, who is holding a can of spray paint, tagged the work of art themselves, though the style is reminiscent of Jansen’s other work he posted to Instagram.
Jansen moved back to his hometown after pursuing an acting career in California.
He chose to paint, creating pieces filled with vibrant colors and portmanteaus of human silhouettes and inanimate objects.
On Jansen’s art website, his bio says he “started painting his problems.”
“After spending time in LA as an adult he was ridden with terrible anxiety and depression.”

Jansen, who performed in The Last Day of Summer and The Walking Dead, said he found respite from his time in Los Angeles through art.
“This period in his life eventually produced a spiritual clarity that drove him to start painting his problems, one by one.”
According to the website, he had created more than 50 art pieces.
Jansen was found dead in his apartment on February 19.
According to police reports, Jansen was found in his apartment “laying on his back on the living room floor, not breathing, and cold to the touch.”
“There were no obvious signs of trauma observed by the undersigned.”
The report states that Hayden and Jansen’s father, Alan Panettiere, visited the scene before his son was declared dead.
Hayden has not spoken in public since Jansen’s death.
According to DailyMail, the siblings had a tight bond, leaving Hayden “inconsolable” in the wake of his death.
In an interview with TV Guide in 2007, Jansen said having a sister like Hayden was “an inspiration.”
