I believe that this piece was painted during a Bristol Mural Collective paint jam, and like so many pieces that are painted on these occasions is totally worthy of inclusion in Natural Adventures. It is always great to see artists who are more used to studio work painting walls, although I know that Genevieve Clapp (Lost_in_illustration) has painted walls in Bristol before. There is a freshness and originality that adds to the vast spectrum of subjects and styles we see in Bristol.

This mysterious piece with a kind of atmospheric/cosmic background features a hooded woman, painted in contrasting shades of blue, clutching a glowing sphere in true fantasy fashion. It is a lovely and rather different kind of piece, which sits comfortably alongside any other works on this wall. I hope to see more from Genevieve Clapp before too long.

I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.
