This mural is my largest and most ambitious project to date. The huge 30 meter public artwork which welcomes visitors to the city of Leeds is a hand-painted lettering piece reading ‘Hello & Welcome To Leeds’, spanning the full length of the iconic Leeds Outdoor Market.
The ‘Hello & Welcome To Leeds’ project was commissioned by Leeds City Council in partnership with Leeds Business Improvement District.
