It’s a tribute to Sam Bates’ skill, that his wonderful graffiti mural remains untouched by tagging.

Sam, 26, is a West End graffiti artist and we haven’t been the only one pleased with his results – and style. Glasgow City Council are thrilled with the product of the collaborative project. Pupils from Willowbank Primary School, Hillhead Primary School and Hillhead High School took part in workshops with Sam, discussing graffiti and ideas for the mural sited along the Kelvin walkway. In addition, he recently designed a huge hoarding transformation for Selfridges and was picked to adorn the underpasses along the Broomielaw for the Commonwealth Games.

Thanks Sam - Unite – how about getting a great artist to freshen up the base of your building ?!
Ramsay has a brilliant scrolling panorama of Sam’s work at Kelvinbridge. It’s worth the click.
