The scaffolding comes
down today, so I am told.

83. Stokes Croft, Slix (1)
A recent 3Dom work in the heart of Stokes Croft that depicts a sad picture of the future, with only one leaf surviving. There is something of the ‘Lorax’ about the scene. Love is the answer.
Messages and warnings like this do not go unheeded, I mean hey, I looked at it and now I’m talking about it.

82. Stokes Croft, the carriageworks (2)
This mural recently (Nov/Dec 2015) appeared on the frequently renewed wall at the carriageworks in Stokes Croft.
It is one of the more unusual works I have seen in the area. Surreal, and beautifully sprayed. It is outstanding.
It appears to me signed by Miller, or Millen or something like that, but I have drawn a blank on any information about the artist. If anyone knows who it might be, please let me know and I will update the post.
As with all works here, it will be gone soon, sprayed over by another artist, so I am glad to have captured this curiosity.
UPDATE – after some more research I have discovered that the artist is Tom Miller, a recent graduate of the University West of England. He has produced some wild prints and I am very tempted to buy one.

81. North Street hoarding (2)
I photographed this lovely Sepr work at the end of July this year, shortly after Upfest 2015. I particularly like this mural, probably because I rather like most of Sepr’s work.
It is similar to another piece he sprayed around the same time in Dighton Street. Grey shades and musical instruments.
