The Armfield Club mural of Jimmy Armfield repainted by Big White Frog.
I was commissioned to fix the badly executed artwork that had been painted by another artist. Ideally I'd have fixed the whole mural (and especially the lettering) but the agreement was to just repaint the face.
I began by completely blanking out the existing face with white paint then starting fresh.
On the left is the portrait of Jimmy Armfield painted by another artist. On the right is the new face I painted over the bad job. The previous work was a crowdfunded project and the fans were not happy with the work they'd paid for. Ideally I'd have loved to have repainted the whole wall but the budget was already spent on the previous work.
