Paris And Mudwig Paint The Town Red

It’s getting to be tradition now, and always raises a good few smiles on site during the festival, but well before doors open, Paris and Mudwig went around painting, mostly toilets and barrier sheets. The former get repainted every year and the latter are thrown away anyway, so you don’t seen many from year to [...]

Back From It…

The blog’s been at Glastonbury for the last week or two, sorry no to have left you with content in the meantime. Still though, lots of time for taking photos of what was going on around the site. So, for the rest of this week, various different bits will be getting blogged from what was [...]

Bits On Picton And Jamaica Streets

Quick couple of bits, interesting to see another one of the Rowdy rocks from outside of the RWA has ended up here at the end of Picton Street. That whole area’s looking pretty interesting at the moment, better than it did a few years back certainly. Since there’s another one of the rocks over at [...]

Tea And Hip Hop, Lewin’s Mead

One of the more random stencils in Bristol this, on Lewin’s Mead. Placed where few will see it round the back of Sound Control…

…it’s Tea & Hip Hop.

No idea.

Vermin, LL Brainwashed And Upfest

So Boswell and Pen were painting down at Upfest the other weekend, and Vermin was around too, but decided to do his own thing rather than paint there. Here’s a couple of snaps of Vermin’s work from over the weekend…
First, a spot of painting on the practice boards at the end of Ashley Road, which, [...]

In The Courts

Story from the Evening Post, a reminder that for all the RWA and Banksy antics, there’s still another side to this whole scene going on.

The Mystic Swing Banksy

If you’re out and about at festivals this summer, you might want to keep an eye out for the famous Mystic Swing.
It’s the one that back round the turn of the decade was painted freehand by Banksy, and looked like this.

Those photos were [...]

Round Morley Street, St Werburghs

Few bits of familiar but unsigned graf round by Morley Street in St Werburghs, first up round by the end of Conduit Road, a nice version of one of those rabbits, probably not done yesterday, not seen a new one for a while…

…closer.

Then round on Morley Street itself, a strange set of three stenciled policemen.

News Story Created At Banksy Show

This story’s come in, bound to happen really wasn’t it. As Sean Ryder once said whilst sweating profusely on a late night Channel 4 culture program “Yeah, it’s like, art, imitation, art. Innit”
If you don’t know who Mclevey is, there’s more here.

Banksy At Bristol Museum Back In The Day

Here’s a post that’s been being saved for the Banksy show to open, with a bit of a story behind it too.
Back in new year 99/00, the centre of Bristol was one big party, with lots of different things laid on by the council and others. In preparation for this, this Queen Victoria statue outside [...]
