This street art piece is a collaboration with Transalpino clothing company. The artwork is clearly a protest against Donald Trump's immigration policy - particularly the president's idea to build a wall between the USA and Mexico.
The piece was actually designed by Rob May (Laces Out festival). It is a parody of Pink Floyd's The Wall album artwork, originally painted by Gerald Scarfe.
Painted in summer 2018, located at Langham Street in Everton, Liverpool.
This was my first political piece, which is a bit surprising as I am actually quite a political person. It was great to work with Jockey and Transalpino for this collaboration. Its true that I am not a Trump fan, I hope Pink Floyd like the work and agree with the sentiment.
A bird's-eye view of the city of Liverpool by Liverpool artist, Paul Curtis Artwork. Located at Cellar 24, Wood Street, Liverpool. The painting is slightly Lowry-esque but the streets are intentionally empty. It was all about the buildings, and it gives an unusual ghost town feel. It has a false perspective in order to keep the buildings in the distance large enough to identify.
Some of the buildings painted include: The Liver Building, Port of Liverpool, Liverpool Town Hall, Liverpool One, The Law Courts, The White Star building, Mann Island, and the Victoria Monument.

It was painted in April 2018 and took about 7 days. I haven't counted the total number of buildings, and didn't even think about a window count!
A unique piece of street art that is influenced by Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal video. The artwork pays homage to Michael's amazing dance moves, particularly his moonwalk.
The mural is located on the corner of Colquitt Street and Seel Street in Liverpool's city centre, on the old BT building, facing Lago cafe. This piece was not a commission, but like "For All Liverpool's Liverbirds", was a gift to the city.
The mural really brightens up a dull wall, even though the only colours are mainly black white and blue.
"I had been thinking about this mural for a while. I'm not sure how the idea came to me, but I think I had some ideas about how could I create a sequence of movements on a flat 2D wall. I saw a clip of the Moonwalk recently, and the gliding steps immediately struck me as something that would work.
The dance moves and the white suit are iconic. I added blue movement lines, although part of me thinks there may have been enough movement without needing them, In any case, I hope it works.
Its been a while since I had the chance to paint a non commissioned piece and have a complete free reign. I really enjoyed it. Like "For all Liverpool's Liverbirds" I wanted to do something that brightens up peoples' day and raises a smile!"
The painting took two long days during the hottest days of 2018.
