據英國《每日郵報》報道,一位浪漫的街頭藝術家以女友最喜歡的迪斯尼電影中的人物爲主題,畫了一幅50英尺長的街頭壁畫,向女友求婚。

28歲的亨利•巴恩斯花了兩天時間,用了30桶油彩創作出了這幅噴漆傑作,壁畫上還寫着一行字:絲黛茜•史密斯,你願意嫁給我嗎。

作品完成後,他帶着26歲的未婚妻絲黛茜去喝咖啡,然後經過這幅壁畫,壁畫上是她最喜歡的迪斯尼電影《美女與野獸》中的人物。絲黛茜大吃一驚,然後淚水奪眶而出,接受了他的求婚。

A romantic street artist proposed to his girlfriend with a 50ft piece of street art featuring characters from her favourite Disney film.

It took Henry Barnes, 28, two days and 30 cans of paint to create the spray-painted masterpiece featuring the words Stacey Smith Will You Marry Me.

He then took fiancee Stacey Smith, 26, for a coffee and walked past the mural illustrated with characters from her favourite Disney film Beauty And The Beast.

Upon realising her other half of three years was actually popping the question, Stacey, a PhD student at Bristol University, burst into tears before saying 'yes'.

She said: 'Henry didn’t tell me what he was doing. I knew he was painting but I didn’t know what. 'It took him two days to finish the thing but he managed to keep it a secret from me.

'He rang me and asked if I wanted to meet up for a drink in Stokes Croft (in Bristol) after work and I didn’t have a clue what was going on.

'Henry didn’t even say anything to me - I walked around the corner and just saw the piece, it was so unexpected I just burst into tears.

'It did all feel a bit unreal and then Henry got down on one knee. It was incredibly romantic and it also felt very strange because there were a lot of people around who started clapping and cheering.

'The whole thing happened so quickly, it was a bit of a whirlwind and we have no plans in place yet but we will probably get married next spring.

'I really didn’t see all this coming but it will certainly be one of those things I always remember.

'Everyone has a favourite Disney film and Beauty and the Beast was mine growing up. Henry knew it was my favourite and that’s why he used Belle and the Beast.'

The couple first met three years ago when they were working together in a call centre.

They recently took part in a 140km hike across the Peak District to raise funds for the Meningitis Research Foundation, where Henry works.

Henry, who lives with Stacey in Montpelier, Bristol, joked that after putting up with each other for the duration of the challenge they could get through anything.

Henry, who creates graffiti under the street name Fiver, said: 'It was a tough slog but we managed to get through the whole thing without falling out with each other.

'I decided that if we could do that without a major row we must have something pretty special going.

'I knew I was going to propose but I didn’t want to do anything that was too cliche so I came up with this idea about three weeks ago.

'I have never done anything as big as this before. I spent the first day painting the wall over and the second day I spent all day painting.

'It took me eight hours but I managed to catch Stacey completely by surprise. When she saw what I had done she just burst into tears, she was so thrilled.'
