7503. Stapleton Road

I think that I may have mentioned before that Nice One has taken to this particular hoarding and made it his own. He has painted a series of wonderful landscape and nature pieces here, that feels like a rolling gallery of his work and talent.

This is actually an augmentation of his previous winter scene, with the addition of larger ‘Nice One’ letters in purple and a fiery skyscape. I am a huge fan of his work, and always get excited when I find it. Nice One possesses that rare combination of artistic talent, originality and edge, which makes his work so compelling.

I am enjoying observing the Avem808’s work, as an artist who only came on to my radar midway through last year. I am not sure whether he only then moved to Bristol, or whether I had simply missed his work before, which I find unlikely but not impossible. The point is that he is here now, and I tend to post every new piece of his that I find.

This is a nicely crafted chrome piece on a fiery background. Avem808 has a distinctive style that is intricate and layered, with deep drop shadows falling upon other letters, for example the A and M sitting above the E, if that makes any sense at all. The colour combination works well and the piece stands out on this wall. Having said all that, it didn’t last very long, which is a pity.

7501. St Werburghs tunnel (575)

Stivs, St Werburghs, Bristol, February 2026
Stivs, St Werburghs, Bristol, February 2026

The letters DSC give away the fact that this epic chrome monster is by Stivs. I guess, from time to time, if you are going to go big, you might as well do it loud and proud. To give you some sense of scale, these letters are probably about 11 or 12 feet tall – that is a lot of chrome paint!

I apologise for the poor photography – my iPhone doesn’t seem to like this section of tunnel and often turns out blurry images (note to self – sort it out). Stiv’s enormous letters are written in a calligraffiti style, but being so large are a little less sophisticated than some of his normal-sized pieces. A big bit of fun in the tunnel.

7500. M32 roundabout J3 (746)

Turoe, M32 roundabout, Bristol, February 2026

This outstanding piece was painted by Turoe, who credited the outline to Muster One. Painted alongside four other artists, the paint jam has turned out to be something of a masterclass of graffiti writing, and this is the second piece I have posted from the session, the first being by Hemper.

Turoe belongs to a small group of graffiti writers who have been smashing it for years (decades) on the streets of Bristol and has earned his place in the scene’s folklore. The seamless transition of colours from light green at the top to dark green at the bottom is flawless. Lots of arrows and overlapping elements from letter to letter showcase this lovely bit of wildstyle writing. Bravo!

What a superb piece from Werm in the Deaner. The symmetry created from the letters WERM is excellent, and something Werm plays with a lot in his work. This might be the tightest one yet. The brownish fill is in two tones and is best described as a chocolate mousse look – regulars will know that I am not fond of brown, but I’ll let it go in this instance.

The deep drop shadow veering to the left provides depth and the light blue background plenty of contrast, bit devices lifting the letters nicely. The red border creates a nice boundary between the letters and background, and I like the ‘cloud’ detail in the blue background. This is an interesting piece that deserves a while to enjoy it.

Creamylines is having something of a purple patch both in terms of quality and quantity of his pieces. This is one of two that I found up at Purdown on a recent dog walk, and I can’t tell you how pleased I was to see them.

There is an unbridled sense of optimism in Creamylines’ work that taps into the essentials of our existence – sunshine, landscapes, nature and people, stripping things back to core values and experiences as humans. This gorgeous piece is less busy than some of his works, allowing our eyes time to alight on some of the details. I love the watercourse at the bottom of the piece, and some of the faces peering in. Thank you Creamylines for making the world a brighter place.

This Surbiton Station wall was a lucky spot to find and has kept my posts ticking over during a rather lean spell on the streets of Bristol. This particular piece is a rather old, but nonetheless stunning combination piece by SkyHigh.

His letters, painted with the characteristic multi style blocks, are broken up with a superb parrot, confirming that SkyHigh is equally happy painting letters and wildlife portraits. A quick look at his gallery will show you that he paints these combinations quite regularly.

The blue and gold macaw is absolutely amazing, and I am in awe of SkyHigh’s skill with his spray cans to be able to create something so beautiful and so accurate. It is about time that he and Roo paid another visit to Bristol.
