image captionResidents say finding the artwork has been uplifting
Large nature-themed murals have started to pop up in a Worcestershire town, painted on cling film.
The impromptu works in Pershore have been created by a graffiti artist who goes by the name of Mr Sce.
He said he wanted to make people happy with his creations, after rediscovering a love of art during the Covid-19 pandemic.
One local person dubbed him the Pershore Banksy , although the style of his latest work is very different.
The pieces, featuring different animals are painted on cling film, wrapped around trees - a technique Mr Sce said was inspired by another graffiti artist.
