Banksy himself posted images of the art on his Instagram profile early this morning:
Kelly Woodruff, whose father owns the property that the piece was spray-painted on claims that they would like to take the steps necessary to preserve the artfrom the upcoming Storm Dennis:
"As it's Valentine's Day, it's really special and to have it in 3D with the flowers is incredible"
She added: "We're not sure where to go from here. We're going to get some advice [about protecting the work]."
Many Banksy fans in the area have taken to social media to post photos of the artwork:
