Around The Bell Off Jamaica Street

The Bell is a pretty wicked pub down just off Jamaica Street. Perhaps because it’s just by Screen One print house, or perhaps because it’s just a very cool pub, it’s long been a hangout for graf and street artists in Bristol.
There’s a good bit of graf inside, that will get blogged here in due [...]

Richmond Terrace, Clifton

Keeping with the Clifton vibe, here’s a small stencil up on Richmond Terrace by the Lansdown Pub.

Nice work, don’t see too much stencil work round this area anymore since Banksy moved to London….

Bristol Fine Art

Saw this sign outside Bristol Fine Art on Park Row the other day, and found it somewhat amusing.

A Fine Art shop, frequented by respectable Clifton oil painting types and part of the Royal West of England Academy no less, is advertising itself as a place to buy Molotow spray paints, which are apparently ‘essential writing [...]

Glostonbury Reminder

Don’t forget the Glostonbury Festival of Skate and Graffiti Arts is kicking off up at the Golden Lion on Gloucester Road this weekend.
Go on, what else have you got to do?

Where The Nick Walker Butterfly Used To Be…

Remember this Nick Walker piece that used to be up on a door on the triangle?

Well, it’s now gone.

In fact it went a couple of weeks ago, but have been waiting to blog it whilst doing some digging to find out what’s happened to it, and have yet to reach any conclusions, so worth blogging [...]

Random Bit On Purdown Monument

Now, as long time readers will know, this blog generally doesn’t cover just tagging. But hell, when you’ve walked all the way up to the Purdown Monument, you may as well cover what you find there.
So, found this. Anyone any ideas?

Blanksy Wall No Longer Blank

Big thanks to Paul for sending this one in. A newish piece on the newish window in fill on the side of the Full Moon pub, a window you may remember from the whole ‘Blanksy’ episode.
Did think it would have been funny to see the same Banksy stencil put back up there by someone, but [...]

Glostonbury

So, this blog’s at Glastonbury Festival now, for various reasons. Hoping to get some blogging in from the site (Pairs and Mudwig are painting there, Xenz has a work there too), but that kinda thing can never be a promise.
But, for those of you around this coming weekend, there’s something equally cool, if not cooler [...]

Up By Worrall Road, Clifton

Found these bits the other day, up on the corssing where Worrall Road joins Upper Belgrave Roads along the side of the Downs.

Odd, because hadn’t seen either of these pieces around before (apart from the S.W.A.T., obviously), though suspect the bird piece is in a similar style to other wildlife pieces around and about.
Must have [...]

The Blog Paints A Van

Well, not really, but a few months ago a guy put a call out to see if there were any Bristol graf artists who’d be up for painting a newly restored camper van. Always happy to help, we did some digging and, after a few months of false starts with different people (artists are often [...]
