I was driving by and saw some teenaged boys stop on bikes, walk up to the brick wall, and one of them was touching the beautiful peacock feathers painted on the wall. It made me smile seeing modern day kids get off their bikes to admire the talent of a painter.

    Great work, I really love it! It looks so much more joyful and a nicer playground! I love street art a lot and think projects like these should never be illegal as you’re only trying to help the neighborhood look nicer. 10/10 beautiful art!

    Are you ever worried whilst you’re away overnight, someone would tag the work you’re working on?

      I think an Empty wall is way more vulnerable to get tagged then an (ongoing) Artwork.

      @Dash nah, in my home town they didn't care. If it's too hard to see then they either use white or black. I saw lots of beautiful wall art filled with weird graffities. They sometime even draw weird things ON TOP of the art like--uh--a human sausage-- something like that
