Having a haircut in one salon has become a more colourful experience thanks to an artist's 1930s-style mural.

Melody Baddage has created a design featuring dancing couples in Artisan in Market Street, Brighton.

Melody said: "The girls in the salon are quite lively and they liked the frivolous 1930s idea."

Melody has spent several years working as an artist in Spain and the Canary Islands, where murals in homes and businesses are popular.

Artisan is her first large piece since returning to England. For information, contact Gecko Interiors in Providence Studios, Providence Place, Brighton, on 01273 670914.
