Xenz and Paris Paint the Farm - Day 2

Swung by The Farm pub again today to check out how the work had come on since yesterday, and boy was today the day to have been there. Always heard these guys can work fast when they get to it, but this was really amazing, the place was looking pretty much done for its basic [...]

Came across this on some wanderings the other day, a cute little stencil on Goldney Lane in Clifton. Not signed or anything, but pretty well done. Sure i recognise the character from childhood cartoons, any ideas?

Xenz And Paris Paint The Farm

Just back from an afternoon watching something pretty darn cool kick off. The Farm pub in St Werburghs has long been a pretty cool place, if a little full of wobbly people on a Sunday afternoon. Well now the hardcore wobbliness has gone, and the place is getting a makeover fitting of its location and [...]

Interesting Banksy For Sale

Spotted this on ebay today, and certainly recognised it! It’s the massive Banksy that people don’t seem to know about too much in the ‘Pierced Up’ piercing shop on Park Row here in Bristol.

Small Random Stencil by Llandodger Trow

Hopefully got something pretty cool coming up for later tomorrow, but in the meantime, here’s a small random stencil from down by the Llandoger Trow. Guess it’s a self portrait of the artist at work? Though that’s a pretty hefty mask to be wearing by the looks of things…

There’s been a cryptic Sickboy related message on the Let Them Hang homepage for a while now, but the news is finally out on what it means.

The Battle Of Cumberland And Wapping Roads II

Blog reader Logic has let us have some photos of some new pieces on the front line of the ongoing graffiti drama on round Cumberland and Wapping Roads, blogged here previously.
Headless Chickens, pretty well done, quite like them, though perhaps a little dark as an image. No idea who did them, clearly someone who knows [...]
