Lots of unknowns about this amazing piece on the Avon River pathway. I have no idea who the artist is and I don’t know how long it has been there, but judging from the fact that it looks pretty fresh and clean and the subject, it might be a recent Halloween piece.
Set on a blue and red broad-striped background this fabulously painted Satan face with enormous horns stands out a mile. The artwork is immaculate and this has been sprayed by an accomplished artist. The hand and spray can spewing out blue paint add a perfect finishing touch to the wall. The word MAFIA at the bottom right doesn’t help with identification. I am irritated that I can’t place the artist, especially as there is something familiar about the style that I simply can’t pin down. Too good not to post. I got there in the end, it is by Dabuten Tronko… see comments below.
Wowzer!

Indeed a great piece
I reckon it might be by one of the Spanish crew but that’s a complete guess . . .

It looks like the piece to the left is connected so if you got a hot of that it might help with ID

There was another satanic figure to the right (to come) but I couldn’t get a signature on that one either.

Went through the pics this morning and found all the adjacent pieces and no recognisable signatures, and I am not very good at identifying our Spanish friends yet.

Yes, but I can’t place it. A little project to work this one out.
