Proposal

Hand Painted Mural. We are working with the landlord who is developing the land at 79 Clerkenwell Road. Whilst this development starts, we would like to paint of the gable ends of the building either side of the land. These will be various hand painted adverts, like the now' ghost signs' that you see all over London. The original style of advertising before bill boards and digital media took over the city.
