‘Keep ‘Er Lit’ is an Irish colloquialism which means keep going, most commonly used when drinking or driving a tractor (although not at the same time…) This was not an easy wall to paint - the brickwork is a difficult colour and there is a lot of street furniture. However ADW cleverly based his palette on the original brick shade, and also matched the colour of the double yellow lines in front of the piece as relief. By leaving some brickwork unpainted, and painting some of the street furniture in front of the piece he’s given the piece a lovely sense of depth and belonging.
