Artist, DJ, was recently commissioned to paint this huge mural on the side of a music/comedy/arts venue in Stourbridge.

DJ is the guy in the photo below, working atop the ladder on this fun painting which took more than two days to create using acrylic mixed with masonary paint.

Preparation for the painting involved six hours of sketching using an HB pencil, 40cm ruler and a 4ft straight edge.
