Street artist Colour Doomed is known for large-scale murals around the city of Cardiff. The artist was from Chichester and graduated with a degree in art at Cardiff University before taking to the streets with his artwork, although he and his family have always had an interest in grafitti and tagging. He helped to work on the Empty Walls street art festival in Cardiff, and his work can be seen around the city. However, the majority of these murals are several years old now and have been tagged over.
On Northcote Lane, this mural "Making War" is by Colour Doomed in collaboration with Helen Bur. The mural depicts two men playing a game with various miniature figures.
Helen Bur and Colour Doomed also collaborated on the colourful mural that shows a caravan, balloons, greyhounds, and a woman riding a bicycle with a skeleton.
Further down this road is a lot of grafitti, and one of the pieces poking out over a wall is a man reading a book by Colour Doomed.
There was another piece by Colour Doomed that was obscured by a wall and also grafitti.
I am not sure who the artist is of the final piece below, which shows multiple colourful birds in abstract form.
I am not aware of Colour Doomed's artwork beyond Cardiff, but there are a few pieces to see here.
