Episode 2 – The 2 Johnnies take on Urban Art:
This episode on Urban Art stems from the 2 Johnnies meeting with Peter Tunney, who runs the Wynwood Walls project in Miami, who appeared on their show The 2 Johnnies Take on America last year. Inspired by his art, the lads wonder if they could help create a special mural in their native Tipperary, and so ensues a whirlwind tour of Ireland where they take inspiration from urban art festival Waterford Walls who specialise in large scale street art, take a lesson from childhood legend Don Conroy, meet some final year art students and put on their very first Art Exhibition!
Can they use all they have learned to paint a mural? A plan is hatched to take a blank wall in Clonmel and transform it into something special. Hon Art!
