Earlier this month, a video showing a woman lifted in the air by a shop shutter went viral on TikTok. The clip not only brought tons of laughs to internet users, but also inspired Welsh street artist Tee2Sugars for his new mural.

In footage captured by a security camera, a woman named Anne Hughes can be seen standing in front of the Best One convenience store in the Welsh village of Tonteg. Suddenly, the shop shutter begins to lift and takes Hughes in the air as her jacket gets stuck on it. The woman, who works as a cleaner in the shop, ends up dangling in the air for a few moments before a member of the staff rushes out of the store to help her out.

Hughes was fortunately unharmed, and the clip received more than two million views on TikTok.

After the video went viral, Tee2Sugars immortalized the scene on the same shutter that was responsible for the incident. According to the artist, Hughes liked the piece and was “good sport” about it.

“It’s not something that’s going to change her life but it’s a funny moment that’s going to be remembered for ever,” Tee2Sugars told British media outlet Guardian.

A restored Banksy mural, titled “Holywell Row Happy Choppers”, will be auctioned off by auction house Anderson & Garland on March 20. The piece, which was painted over at one point, is expected to be sold for anywhere between $650K and $900K.

The mural, featuring a fleet of Apache helicopters with pink bows, was painted by Banksy back in 2006 at a building in London. The word about the work has quickly spread, causing the building owner to paint it over. They later sold the building without mentioning the existence of the mural.

The new owner only learned about Banky’s mural when they browsed through Martin Bull’s book BANKSY LOCATIONS AND TOURS and saw the photo of “Holywell Row Happy Choppers”. When they went to examine the location of the mural from the photo, they found the artwork covered with black paint with only a small part showing.

Wanting to salvage the piece, the building owner contacted the Fine Art Restoration Company, which has worked on restoring other Banksy murals in the past. The restoration team then proceeded to work for over a year on the mural before returning it to its former glory.

“Banksy is a real icon of our time. His art is so important to preserve for future generations,” said an anonymous seller in a statement shared by Anderson & Garland.

Italian street artist Cosimo Caiffa, aka Cheone, creates some of the most impressive murals we have seen in recent times. Cheone’s 3D street art is so detailed and convincing that it looks like it will jump out of walls and buildings at any given moment.

 Cheone’s works are special not only because he efficiently manages to produce a 3D effect on a 2D surface. The talented artist often incorporates urban surroundings into his works or makes the murals interact with them in a way that enhances their effect.

Cheone grew up surrounded by art and was a very talented painter at a young age. However, once he discovered graffiti, he immediately fell in love with it and decided to make street art his life’s calling.

According to Cheone, he gravitated specifically toward 3D street art because he wanted to make his murals unique and captivating while challenging himself as an artist.

“The idea was born from the desire to get out of the box, and in all my designs I try to send messages of unease, the joy of life and what surrounds me,” Cheone explained in a recent interview.

Check out more of Cheone’s impressive 3D murals below.

The works of street artist Francesco Camillo Giorgino, better known as Millo, are transforming dull and grey buildings into frames for impressive large-scale murals. His works are surreal and thought-provoking and offer a window into a whimsical world that exists in the artist’s mind.

Millo’s murals usually focus on curious characters caught in the middle of exploring the world that surrounds them. They have surreal moments to them, as each character is shown a lot bigger compared to the structures they interact with. The artist shows them exploring houses, carefully watching events unfold, or simply finding a comfy spot between the buildings and letting their thoughts wander.

According to Millo, while his works might seem like they follow a common theme, every one of them is inspired by something different, whether it is a world event or something he experienced. 

“As you’ll notice, scrolling through the pages of my works, all of them convey different messages. Most of the time, they depend on the places where I’m painting,” Millo shared in a recent chat with Colossal.

Millo murals have found home around the world, from his native Italy to the United States, Australia, Thailand, Argentina, and Morocco, among other countries. He also frequently shares his newest pieces on social media. Check out more of them below.

Making good street art requires a different kind of skill than traditional art. Instead of using a basic rectangular canvas like most painters, the world around you is your canvas. Many wouldn’t be able to thrive in this scenario, but Juandres Vera isn’t one of those people. In fact, Vera’s street art is so darn incredible that you would think he was born to be a street artist.

The Barcelona native creates work that makes it look as though the city is coming alive before your very eyes. It can be anything from a giant brick oven with a hand protruding from it, holding a fresh hot loaf of bread, to a realistic-looking tunnel leading towards an Arizona desert.

There seems to be nothing this young man is unable to paint, but it’s the manner in which he incorporates it with the public items in the vicinity that elevates it to otherworldly heights. If you’re wondering if his work has garnered popularity, perhaps Vera’s 24,000 plus followers on Instagram are an indication of his success—and you should totally join them and become a follower too if you like his work.

Andrej Josifovski aka Pijanista is using the power of street art to send inspiring messages all over the world. One of his latest pieces is a case in point, and it immortalizes the love between an adorable girl and her grandfather—who came back to see their painting on the wall.

This mural is a part of Josifovski’s series “Usreci se” aka “Be Happy”. He’s a Serbian street artist and architect, who attracted almost Instagram 50,000 followers with his street and performance art. On his official website, Josifovski explains he’s trying to send “inspiring messages through murals all over the world.”

His latest artwork started with a little girl and her grandpa looking at one of his “be happy” murals, shaped like a yellow smiley face. The image of the two standing in front of the mural was so striking that he decided to paint the photo of the duo over the same wall in Belgrade, Serbia.

Many people came to see it in the flash, including Natalija and Slobodan—the granddaughter-grandfather duo from the mural. Josifovski  even posted a photo of the two looking at the mural, writing, “Dan you imagine my happiness when I saw a little girl Natalija and her grandfather Slobodan looking at themselves on the wall…?!”

Painting murals is hard enough, but French street artist Scaf decided to up the difficulty level by adding 3D effects to his works. His murals, which usually adorn the walls of abandoned buildings or give life to plain gray urban exteriors, feature an impressively realistic depiction of animals and other subjects looking like they are coming to life.

Scaf paints his murals to complement their surroundings while being easy to interact with. He often posts photos of himself alongside the work to give social media users some ideas when they encounter the murals in person.

There are plenty of recurring themes in Scaf’s works, with animals seeming to be his favorite subject. However, the artist always makes sure to add something new, even if he is painting a mural similar to some that he has done in the past.

“The hardest part is not repeating myself over time,” he shared in an interview with Bored Panda. “I always try to create something new. Sometimes animals come back in my paintings, but I’m usually trying to find something that best suits the wall. I need to paint without always doing the same; it’s quite difficult over time.”

Scaf frequently shares his newest murals on Instagram, where he has close to 160K followers. Check out more of his works below.

Peruvian visual artist Xomatok recently visited Mexico City and decided to spend some time on its streets. In between exploring this charming city, he also used the opportunity to create a new series of artworks titled Manifestos.

Xomatok opted to do several interventions on Mexico City street cracks, painting them in various vibrant colors. The cracks, caused by the force of the tree roots trying to escape the pavement, were transformed into an eye-catching art installation thanks to a mixture of green, yellow, pink, and blue. The entire thing almost resembles a rainbow spill.

“This series of interventions brings us closer to a conscious experience in the streets through the intervention of the cracks in the concrete that reveal the force of nature present in urban life, an allusion to the unveiling of other realities that exist in parallel to it,” the artist shared about the project.

Xomatok made a total of five Manifestos artworks, with each one being open to the public to admire it. If you are currently in Mexico City, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Roma Norte neighborhood and check them out in person. If not, continue scrolling to see more photos shared on social media.

Erik Greenawalt is nowadays a respected chalk artist who exhibited his chalk drawings at numerous art festivals and created art for all sorts of high-profile brands. But a decade ago, he was just a dad looking to make his daughters happy.

Greenawalt, who worked most of his life in corporate finance, started his art career when his toddler daughters Jaycie and Jenna asked him to draw some of their favorite cartoon characters with chalk on the driveway of their home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Not wanting to disappoint his princesses, Greenawalt obliged, but little he knew this wouldn’t be enough.

Pleased with the outcomes of their first requests, Jaycie and Jenna soon started demanding more elaborate drawings from their dad. Greenawalt kept on saying yes to all of them and soon earned the nickname “The Chalking Dad.”

Since then, Greenawalt has continued honing his skills and creating grand pieces of chalk art at events all across the United States. His favorite subjects are portraits of celebrities and sports heroes, but he will gladly go outside his comfort zone for the right opportunity or when his daughters come up with another driveway drawing wish.

Andrej Josifovski aka Pijanista is using the power of street art to send inspiring messages all over the world. One of his latest pieces is a case in point, and it immortalizes the love between an adorable girl and her grandfather—who came back to see their painting on the wall.

This mural is a part of Josifovski’s series “Usreci se” aka “Be Happy”. He’s a Serbian street artist and architect, who attracted almost Instagram 50,000 followers with his street and performance art. On his official website, Josifovski explains he’s trying to send “inspiring messages through murals all over the world.”

His latest artwork started with a little girl and her grandpa looking at one of his “be happy” murals, shaped like a yellow smiley face. The image of the two standing in front of the mural was so striking that he decided to paint the photo of the duo over the same wall in Belgrade, Serbia.

Many people came to see it in the flash, including Natalija and Slobodan—the granddaughter-grandfather duo from the mural. Josifovski  even posted a photo of the two looking at the mural, writing, “Dan you imagine my happiness when I saw a little girl Natalija and her grandfather Slobodan looking at themselves on the wall…?!”

Painting murals is hard enough, but French street artist Scaf decided to up the difficulty level by adding 3D effects to his works. His murals, which usually adorn the walls of abandoned buildings or give life to plain gray urban exteriors, feature an impressively realistic depiction of animals and other subjects looking like they are coming to life.

Scaf paints his murals to complement their surroundings while being easy to interact with. He often posts photos of himself alongside the work to give social media users some ideas when they encounter the murals in person.

There are plenty of recurring themes in Scaf’s works, with animals seeming to be his favorite subject. However, the artist always makes sure to add something new, even if he is painting a mural similar to some that he has done in the past.

“The hardest part is not repeating myself over time,” he shared in an interview with Bored Panda. “I always try to create something new. Sometimes animals come back in my paintings, but I’m usually trying to find something that best suits the wall. I need to paint without always doing the same; it’s quite difficult over time.”

Scaf frequently shares his newest murals on Instagram, where he has close to 160K followers. Check out more of his works below.

Peruvian visual artist Xomatok recently visited Mexico City and decided to spend some time on its streets. In between exploring this charming city, he also used the opportunity to create a new series of artworks titled Manifestos.

Xomatok opted to do several interventions on Mexico City street cracks, painting them in various vibrant colors. The cracks, caused by the force of the tree roots trying to escape the pavement, were transformed into an eye-catching art installation thanks to a mixture of green, yellow, pink, and blue. The entire thing almost resembles a rainbow spill.

“This series of interventions brings us closer to a conscious experience in the streets through the intervention of the cracks in the concrete that reveal the force of nature present in urban life, an allusion to the unveiling of other realities that exist in parallel to it,” the artist shared about the project.

Xomatok made a total of five Manifestos artworks, with each one being open to the public to admire it. If you are currently in Mexico City, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Roma Norte neighborhood and check them out in person. If not, continue scrolling to see more photos shared on social media.

Erik Greenawalt is nowadays a respected chalk artist who exhibited his chalk drawings at numerous art festivals and created art for all sorts of high-profile brands. But a decade ago, he was just a dad looking to make his daughters happy.

Greenawalt, who worked most of his life in corporate finance, started his art career when his toddler daughters Jaycie and Jenna asked him to draw some of their favorite cartoon characters with chalk on the driveway of their home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Not wanting to disappoint his princesses, Greenawalt obliged, but little he knew this wouldn’t be enough.

Pleased with the outcomes of their first requests, Jaycie and Jenna soon started demanding more elaborate drawings from their dad. Greenawalt kept on saying yes to all of them and soon earned the nickname “The Chalking Dad.”

Since then, Greenawalt has continued honing his skills and creating grand pieces of chalk art at events all across the United States. His favorite subjects are portraits of celebrities and sports heroes, but he will gladly go outside his comfort zone for the right opportunity or when his daughters come up with another driveway drawing wish.
