Birmingham City of Colours

September 6th 2014 saw the City of Colours festival in Digbeth, Birmingham, arrive in style. Centered around The Custard Factory in Gibb Street this was a true spectacle for all Street art fans. The Sun was shining and thousands of people flocked to the Digbeth area ready to witness the creative works of Gent 48, C3, Jimmy C, Inkie, Setdebelleza, Golden Boy, N4T4, Miss Wah........ the list seemed endless, check the link for a full list.

With the car parked up in one of the side streets, it was time to go and check out some incredible artistic talent. The first person I saw was this chap below... Liskbot, a local lad from Birmingham who does these crazy fantastic brilliant Robot murals.
