I designed the vinyl artwork myself by converting the original character pen drawings made for the mural into digital graphics. Unlike the painted mural (which takes its main colour from the building’s vibrant terracotta bricks) the window designs have inherited the old shopfront’s beautiful yellows and gold leaf accents.
It’s nice to see a project finally come together. Including the mural, this project has been a long one with lots of hard work conceptualising, designing and then creating the final artwork. It’s been quite an honour to sprinkle some of my creativity onto the Drake Street heritage action zone regeneration project.
This is the second part of my project on the former Butterworth Bros Jewellers building, after completing the mural on the back a month ago.
