The columns under the M32 are constantly being refreshed, which is great news for people like me. This column is by an artist I have not featured before on this blog. He is J. West and is a Bristol animator turned artist. He has a love of depicting animal which has been in part inspired by his time working at Bristol Zoo Gardens.

This is a nice strong symmetrical piece that contrasts with many of the other rather more organic pieces at this location. J. West has used the constraints of the column to his advantage and produced this arttractive and intriguing piece. I look forward to seeing more of his work in the future.
FYI, this is one of 2 stencils under the girl with the pearl earring – obviously the work of a beginner – the other one is a quote by Auden but is too blurred to post so I’ve trashed it … http://urbanartalacarte.blogspot.co.uk/2017/12/street-art-in-bristol-artist-unknown.html

I think it is a bit cheeky stencelling under a Banksy…unless you are accomplished, but hey, you’ve got to start somewhere.

Stephen, not sure if it’s just me or not but the Ian Phenna one isn’t showing properly – says page cannot be found. Also I have sent you an email to ID a few pix. G

I published the Ian Phenna by mistake, it will be re published in a few days. It was only up for a few minutes, so you were quick off the mark!
