It is not often you see a piece like this in Bristol, or indeed in much of the UK, as street artists tend to reflect the national prudishness and our discomfort with overt nudity in any form. These giant boobies, have been painted by Created by Billie, an artist, Billie Jo, who I believe is based in Wolverhampton, but as with all visiting artists is truly welcome in Bristol.

The hashtags that Created by Billie used on her Instagram post associated with this piece, might give you some indication of where it is coming from: #art #streetart #femaleempowerment #female #adhd #paintingmakesmehappy. I cannot think of better reasons for painting this piece.

Sensibly she painted it on the path alongside the swimming pool, which has a long hedge bordering it, and kept the piece from view, resulting in it lasting longer than it might have done if it had been more exposed. Personally, I like the piece, but am aware that there are some who might find it offensive, which is a pity. I look forward to more visits in the future.

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.
