I genuinely thought that DNT had all but stopped painting walls, and haven’t found any of his work since May 2024. What an amazingly pleasant surprise it was to find this mural-style piece at the far entrance to the Boiling Wells Road tunnel a week or two ago.
‘Be happy, be brave, be cheeky’ is a phrase that would probably chime for a great many street artists, that sits above the tunnel entrance surrounded by a stunning floral display. There are some other ‘doodles’ that make it into this ensemble; a pair of shoes, an octopus tentacle and an alien spaceship. I would love to think that this might signal a return to our streets from the artist, but I won’t hold my breath. Instead, I will enjoy this beautiful and refreshing piece.
