Bristol artist John D'oh leaves mark as Dismaland closes, by dreadnatty on Sept 29, 2015 4:11:07 GMT 1, Bristol artist John D'oh leaves mark as Dismaland closes

Anonymous street artist John D'oh left his mark in Weston-super-Mare at the closing on the last day of Banksy's Dismaland exhibition.
And the Bristol-based artist โ who has said Banksy inspired him โ not only left artwork at Birnbeck Pier but also at the Bear Pit in Bristol.
His latest work is a topical jab at the Prime Minister.
He said: "I enjoy doing a bit of political art and it's nice to do things that are relevant and make people smile. With the Piglet/Piggate piece which I did in Bristol Bear Pit people were already smiling and laughing before I finished it."
The artist previously gave away work in Weston-super-Mare at the time of the Dismaland exhibition.
He added: "It is a shame so many people couldn't get tickets and have had to miss out on the experience. Yeah โ I'm sad to see it go but also eager to see what Banksy comes up with in the future.

I didn't pick it up as always seems odd nabbing stuff like that so that others cant see it! - even if it is meant to be taken!
