Dragons and dinosaur murals take over city centre
Dinosaurs, dragons and ducks have appeared across Chelmsford as part of a street art project.
The Concrete Canvas event has taken over the city for the third time, covering buildings and street furniture.
This year’s creations will join up with previous years’ artwork to create more than 100 murals.
All of this year’s artists are from Essex, London or have a personal connection to the area.
The project has been created by the Chelmsford Business Improvement District (BID), Chelmsford For You and supported by Chelmsford City Council.
"I'm really proud to be inviting artists to paint again in Chelmsford for Concrete Canvas, especially as this year we will reach the milestone of creating our 100th mural," said project manager Candy Joyce.
Sara Tupper, BID Manager, added: "We’re thrilled at the response to Concrete Canvas over the last two years and cannot wait to see this year's additions and extended trail.
"The artwork not only enhances the profile and visitor experience of the city centre but also increases the footfall, with people travelling in from as far as Leeds to view the beautiful murals."
