David Puck creates murals for West Midlands drag queens

David Puck is a British-American visual artist well known for their murals of prominent queer figures, including drag legends RuPaul, Monet Exchange, Naomi Smalls and Sasha Velour.

As part of Worcester Paint Festival this autumn, Puck has created a new tribute to Ginny Lemon – a local drag queen who starred on season two of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK. If fans “fancy a slice”, they can see the

Ginny mural in the Arboretum. A full list of the Worcester Paint Festival locations can also be found at www. worcesterpaintfestival.co.uk/artists.

Ginny isn’t the only West Midlandsbased queen that Puck has created a mural for. Black Peppa – a drag performer, model and dancer and Church of Yshee winner 2019 – has also received a painted tribute. The mural of Black Peppa can be found in Digbeth, an area well known for its graffiti and street art.
