The Bearpit has not had very much new work since it was taken over by the Mexican exhibition in the early Autumn, which feels strange as I am used to such a high turn over of ‘quickies’ there. This one has slipped through the net though. Another nice simple stencil from RIP, who might as well just come and live in Bristol, as it would save a lot on travel.
There are rewards to be had when making the effort to walk just that little bit further, or turn down a street you’ve not been down before. My reward recently for doing this was to come across this beautiful mural on the front of a small terraced house in Montpelier.
Another fine example of wildstyle writing down at the M32 roundabout by the inexhaustible Sled One. This piece has a metallic look to it, not only in the colour palette but also in the angular nature of the lettering and embellishment.
I have probably said as much as I need to in previous posts about how much I admire the work of Sled One. Always beautifully executed, never ever disappointing.

Bitterly cold morn,
frost-laden station; sitting
on Metro for warmth.

In the shaft of light
dust particles dance gently;

Those of you who who have read this blog before will probably recognise this piece instantly as the work of Osch. This is one of a series of works characterised by a frame of an orange/yellow circle with some kind of scene, usually silhouetted going on inside the circle.
This is another happy piece by Laic217 in St Werbergs tunnel. It takes the typical form for his pieces of some wildstyle writing and a character. This time the character is a smiley face wearing what appears to be a bucket hat/spaceship. It seems that much of Laic217’s work is influenced by acid house culture.
The piece was located towards the north end of the tunnel on the farm side, and was not too badly affected by the terrible photographic conditions in the tunnel. If you want to see more of Laic217’s style, then simply type ‘Laic217 Bristol UK’ into google images, and you will get a feel for what he is all about. I like this piece
