"CHERRIES skipper Tommy Elphick has been immortalised among other Bournemouth figures in a huge street art mural.

The artwork, which was unveiled yesterday in Lansdowne, was painted by renowned graffiti artist Rick Walker to celebrate the town’s creative and sporting communities.

Besides Elphick, the mural has been inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s eponymous characters Jekyll and Hyde and world champion breakdance crew Second to None.

Bournemouth University and the National Centre for Computer Animation’s Oscar-winning visual effects work for the film Gravity is also referenced in the mural.

Measuring 15m (49ft) high and 13m (43ft) wide, the art is the third in a series of giant murals commissioned by the consumer education initiative Get it Right from a Genuine Site, which aims to increase awareness and respect for the UK’s creative industries, from music, film and TV, to sport, literature, and gaming".
