AN ARTIST has continued his mission to liven up grot spots and old walls by painting a mural behind the former Liquid and Envy nightclub in Redhill.
Tim Stiling – who goes by the art name Uncle Stubble and whose other work includes a mural near the new West Central café in London Road, Redhill – has completed the piece to replace the usual graffiti tags that blight disused buildings and walls.
Speaking about his new work on the Songhurst Memorial Hall, he said: "With the old walls being an irresistible site for unsightly tags, the idea was to produce a bright and colourful mural to go over these tags and to also represent the good things that take place in the hall.
"The girl painted looking at the 'fruit face' on the wall is actually my step-granddaughter, so the pressure was on for me to recreate a good likeness.
"I've also been doing some work at the local YMCA, and hope to keep on brightening up the local area."
