Alaska

Subtitle: Pig Heaven [revisited]

I was kinda surprised to find that Pig Heaven had been painted over, but thankfully by an even better/more detailed piece of work. I'm 99% sure it's another Benzo, because it just feels like a Benzo piece - i.e. there's the detail of a pretty damn good painter/illustrator, and the over-all style. Funnily enough, the lettering on the explorer's belt seems to read "Alaska", which references the huge lettering I was unsure of on "Pig Heaven".

You know, every now and again I think about trying to interview these local artists, just to learn more about what they do, whether pieces are comissioned or not, near-misses with getting caught, tips, tricks and whatever else they want to say - but I'm not a journalist and beyond Detour I don't have a platform to give these excellent artists the exposure that an interview would provide. Guess I'll just be content with enjoying their work on the street!
