The first side of my bus is complete, painted in November 2025 for @stratford_junction . Thank you so much for the opportunity!

This piece took around four days of work. I’ve always wanted to paint a double decker bus. It has genuinely been one of my dream projects.

I can’t wait to show you the full bus, as I’m now almost finished with the other sides. I put my whole soul into this project, and I really hope you enjoy it.

I’ll share the full story once it’s completed, but for now I can tell you this. It is a tale of love, passion, and transformation into higher beings. Whether that energy turns positive or negative, it doesn’t really matter.

Hello folks, I was asked to paint in complete freedom this painting for a customer! I would like to explain to you what this painting means:

The Magical Goddess is a vibrant work full of symbolism, mixing the power of the natural world with the mysterious energy of magic. At the center, the magical goddess, with an imposing head adorned by a tenacious bird, radiates an aura of mystery. In her left hand, she holds red mushrooms, symbolising natural magic, while in her right, she grips the Tarot card of the Six of Cups, representing emotional balance and revelations from the soul.

In the background, the golden full moon illuminates the scene, while two dragons, inspired by the mythology of Bali masks, protect the goddess. A white vortex at the base symbolises the passage between the earthly and spiritual worlds, uniting the movement of universal energies.

I’m sooo thrilled to finally share the other side of the bus!

I completely forgot to post this side, life got busy and somehow I totally overlooked it. But here it is!

And PLEASE… give me BIG WALLS! 😂🙏 I’m realising more and more that with all the details, characters and little worlds I love adding, small walls are just not enough for me anymore!

A massive thank you to @stratford_junction and @dave_plants for the opportunity, trust and support, I loved bringing this bus to life! this is definitely the biggest (and favourite) wall to date!

Hope you like this side too!

Ahhh… and front + back pictures coming very, very soon!

The third eye, for me, is about accessing the unconscious consciously.
Our minds are constantly trying to sell us ideas about who we are, who we should be, what we should want, what is right or wrong, and what we should be afraid of.
Sometimes we become so attached to those thoughts that we forget they are just thoughts.
For me, the third eye is also about letting go. Letting go of the need to control everything, of the stories my mind creates, and of the need to immediately understand or define everything I feel.

When I paint, I try to enter that space. I allow images, creatures, symbols and emotions to emerge without asking them to make sense first. It’s almost like stepping outside of the constant conversation happening in my head and observing what exists underneath it.

Maybe opening the third eye isn’t about seeing more. Maybe it’s about letting go of some of the things that stop us from seeing.

And I think this is something I’m constantly exploring, not only through my art, but through life. Learning to let go a little more, control a little less, and stay open to what comes through.

If you’d like to discover more about this artwork and the story behind it, the full documentary about how I painted the double-decker bus and the meaning behind the piece is now on my YouTube channel!

And a huge thank you to @nathaliaanzolaphoto , who helped me bring this story to life through video, for all the time, creativity and care she put into it, and, in general, for just being an amazing human to have around throughout this journey. ❤️

What does it mean to you?

Somewhere between decay and wonder, there’s a wall in Sudbury Town that chose wonder.

What used to be a derelict, forgotten building is now an entire wonderland, painted into existence by @lespleenart .

Portrait work and photography that feels less like documenting street art and more like witnessing the magic gaining life.

These murals were created for the community fund by Friends Barham Library.

Not the easiest thing for me to appear on camera.
I love public speaking in person, but talking to a camera is a whole different story 😅 Anyway, I thought it could be useful to share what I actually use when I paint!

One of my go-to spray paints, and the one I mainly used to paint the double-decker bus, is @molotowheadquarters

I really like it because of its low pressure, colour vibrancy and durability, especially when working outdoors.

Low pressure is particularly important for me because I have really small hands !! It means I don’t need to put as much pressure on the cap, so it’s much less tiring on my fingers during long painting sessions. With high-pressure cans, after spraying for hours, I sometimes get to the point where my fingers are so tired and stiff that I can barely press the cap anymore!

It also gives me more control, especially when working on all the little details that are such a big part of my work.

I hope this helps anyone who is just starting out with spray paint! 🎨

If you have questions about what kind of paint or materials I use for different purposes, just ask. And let me know if you’d like me to share more practical painting tips!

A huge thank you to @nathaliaanzolaphoto for helping me with these videos you are a ⭐❤️

A quick painting from the other day at @stockwell_hall_of_fame 🎨 I’ve been experimenting with new approaches and trying new things, and I can’t express how much I love this exploration and the humility of knowing that I am always learning and moving through this beautiful journey.

Work takes up most of my time, but whenever I get a little break between jobs, being able to paint brings me so much joy. Beyond all the things we want, need or feel we should become, sometimes it is simply incredible to appreciate what we already have: love, the possibility of living this life in good health, and the opportunity to explore what makes us feel alive.

I often think about all the people who were never given the freedom or possibility to discover what they love. That is why I feel deeply grateful every time I have the opportunity to paint a wall. For me, it is never just a wall. It is how I communicate my inner world, with determination, patience and strength, hoping that something in it might reach another person and encourage them to explore their own.

Today, I simply want to say thank you for the opportunity to live, love and paint. That’s all. ❤️#lespleenart#stockwellhalloffame #londongraffiti #londonstreetart by @lespleenart

What an incredible experience MOS Kosovo 2026! WOOOW! ❤️‍🔥

Seven days of painting everywhere, surrounded by incredibly talented artists and truly wonderful people. I met so many beautiful souls, shared unforgettable moments and came home feeling inspired, energised and more open to life.

I feel so blessed by everything I manifested during this festival because, somehow, it all actually happened. ✨ Everything was completely random, but somehow never wrong. It felt like everything unfolded exactly as it was meant to.

Thank you to everyone who made this experience so special. MOS Kosovo, you were unforgettable! Until next time! 🇽🇰🎨❤️

A closer look at this mural created in Sudbury Town for the local community and the Friends of Barham Library. 🌿✨

The project was designed to transform and beautify the space, discourage vandalism and help create a more welcoming environment for everyone in the area.

The landscape reimagines an old Sudbury Town, with its historic church surrounded by nature and inhabited by mystical creatures. Look closely and you’ll notice how the figures are intertwined and merge into one another. The fox is also a squirrel, the child becomes a mushroom, and the blue bird transforms into a pelican. Hidden connections and new characters reveal themselves throughout the painting.

A celebration of local history, imagination and the power of public art to bring new life to a shared space. 💙

A little introduction to who I am, my work, and what I wanted to represent with this project. ❤️ This is just a small extract from a longer video beautifully put together by @nathaliaanzolaphoto , where I talk about the journey behind painting the double-decker bus for @stratford_junction .

This project has been such an important one for me. Working on this scale gave me the opportunity to push my work further, refine the quality and details, and see my visual language come to life in a completely different way.

It definitely made me realise one thing… give me BIG surfaces! 😂🙌 There’s so much more I want to explore.

More from the full project and the story behind it coming soon. 🫶❤️#lespleenart #stratfordjunction #londonstreetart #visionaryart by @lespleenart
