‘One of the best walls ever’ painted in Bristol
“This is one of the best walls I have ever seen,” said Bristol graffiti artist Inkie with a can of Thatchers Gold in his hand on Friday afternoon.
It wasn’t just the cider talking: this wall in Eastville is an epic piece of work.
Just a stone’s throw from Ikea, Goldie has brought together artists from across the world to paint a huge mural to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his drum’n’bass label, Metalheadz.
