He gets to have a limited edition print sold by Art Republic, with a proportion from each sale going to homeless charities like StreetSmart.
Preparations have begun to transform a 2 storey-wall into an original work of art. The wall kindly donated by myhotels has been prepped, and the winning image will serve as a reminder of the UK homeless situation when it is unveiled on Brighton’s Jubilee Street on Friday 5th February.
The next location is in Covent Garden, London where the image will be painstakingly reproduced onto a 4-storey building.

The Boom Bus – Awesome Graffiti Bus!
So on the A41 in North West London, towards the M25 Junction near Watford I saw the Boom Bus covered in graffiti, looking like it had been abandoned in a bus stop on the side of the busy 2 lane road. So I stopped, and here are some photos!
It’s a pretty good looking graffiti bus, a double decker London bus seems to be the perfect place to graff.
Photos from one side of the graffiti bus aren’t great cos the road was too busy to run out onto.

You can see the Boom Bus website too, the pics seem old but it’s a good looking site. Not sure if he’s still hiring it out, but give him a try.
