Famous football legend mural. Valderrama's, (Upper Street, Islington) London

Commissioned for the brilliant football bar, Valderrama’s, featuring a delicious menu, courtesy of co-owner chef James Cochran, the brief was to depict the bar's namesake - the legendary Colombian footballer Valderrama. The mural is a blast from the nostalgic past packed with 80s football shirt patterns, nods to Valderrama and hints at the food and drinks on the menu.

I also designed a second wall to carry through those football shirt patterns and further connect to the venue's celebration of all things football. Both upstairs and downstairs is drenched in wonderfully quirky nods to the artistic design and flavour of the fine game - all thanks to the careful art direction of Bryan Mayes.
