I am rather excited this morning, because I am off to Cheltenham later on, to enjoy the delights of the Paint Festival, conceived and organised by the brilliant and tireless Dice 67 (Andy Davies). In the meanwhile, I will share this lovely piece from Smut on the long wall at Peel Street Green.

Smut has moved on from his thin script writing, which he has retained in his signature, but what has not changed is his incredible sharpness and accuracy in his work. The letters have been superbly filled, with the ‘watery’ patterning flowing from letter to letter in a coherent way, rather than discrete fills for each one. A black 3D shadow and perfect red border finish the piece off nicely. Smut’s high standards go from strength to strength.
