Seems silly in a way, the most commonly viewed Bristol piece in this whole site has never actually had a blog to itself.
So, for anyone who’s liked the image header up there, here are some more shots of it.
It was done on the St Pauls side of Junction 3 of the M32 around bonfire night [...]

Sainty In Oppo
There’s always art of varying levels in Oppo on Park Street, apparently they let artists exhibit and sell there without taking any cut of the money, benefitting only from the temporary display of pictures on the walls.
Wandered in the other day and spotted some Sainty pieces, he of What? Collective fame.
Known for the birdhouses, here [...]

A Small Collection
Been sent some snaps recently of a small Bristol collection of two interesting things from back in the day.
First off, an early Sickboy temple on a brick, rescued from a building demolition a few years back.
Second, a Banksy paste up from back in the day. Not obviously 100% verifiable as Banksy, but looks right. Interesting [...]

Lots Of Old Banksy Pics
Have had a lot of old Banksy pics from around Bristol sent in over the last few months, and obviously going to share them here. Had had a plan to take photos of the wall as it looks now to contrast with what it was then, but that’s proving a little more time consuming than [...]

End Of A Piece On Jamaica Street
Ever wonder what happens to pieces when the boards they’re on are taken down? Well, most of the stuff around Jamaica Street done as part of the PRSC project is still sitting safely with them, which is good.
Last week though, this piece…

…ended up here.
Pity in a way, was quite a nice one. Ho [...]

Ashley Road Update
Interesting discussion on the last post about the boards at the end of Ashley Road, but all history now, as the work there’s gone already, replaced by a big Haka piece…
…and next to it a rather natty 3Dom head.

Small Stencil In Henleaze
Don’t see much graf round these parts, and this bit by the petrol station on North View in Henleaze looks as old and worn as it is strange.
Not seen another one like it anywhere before. Odd.

A Small St Werburghs Path Updated
Blogged this path at the side of Mina Park in St Werburghs back last December, and at the end hinted that the big wall down by the Duke of York may get cleaned up and redone sometime. Not been round that way for a while, but found this there recently, which is pretty lovely and [...]

Sepr Paints The Junction
There was a planning meeting for PRSC last night, sorting out what more can be done and who can volunteer to do it. Sure they’re still looking for people to help even if you couldn’t make the meeting, so do get in touch with them if you want to.
Anyway, as part of the meeting down [...]

First Great Weston – The Bristol Version Down The Bell
Back from the launch of the Bristol version of the First Great Weston print down The Bell off Jamaica Street, and what a wicked night it was. The print sold well, the crowd was fun, and a good time was had by all.
The pub opened at 5pm, and the print went on sale at 7pm, [...]
