An Amazon employee with a passion for art has painted a mural at the firm's depot.
Martins Abols works in the shipping department in Dartford and has been an artist for more than a decade.
The mural features Amazon's mascot Peccy and an Amazon Prime airplane.
The artist had a desire to "deliver smiles" to his colleagues and spent five days creating it.
Martins said: "Everything I create is cartoon-like and abstract.
"Painting makes me truly happy, and time flies when I become immersed in a piece of artwork".
He added: "I wanted to do something special for my colleagues and thought the mural would be a great way to make them smile".
The mural was unveiled by Priyanka Bernard, general manager at Amazon in Dartford, who said: "We are very fortunate to have people like Martins on our team who are talented and passionate about their work.
"The mural is a beautiful addition to our site and will be much appreciated by everyone here."
