I caught up with Mr Draws when he was painting this piece, and he told me it was going to be something a little bit different and he was right. Mr Draws has always had a strong environmental conviction running through his work, and he says that he wants to do more of this kind of messaging work in the future.

Drawing attention to contemporary issues is something that street art does very well, and Mr Draws doesn’t pull any punches in this piece which states “No art on a dead planet”. The whole thing is simply done with big bold letters on a striking background. The colour fades in the big letters have been worked very nicely, and although not painted in his usual style, there is something so very Mr Draws about the piece.

I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

      1. I’ve seen them about for quite a few years now but have never been able to read the letters or know who has done them which is annoying in the extreme lol . . . πŸ˜‰

    1. Entrances to the tunnels on m32 roundabout. Chrome one in Sparke Evans Park. They are quite big, and I keep seeing them. I must have photographed 5 or 6…
