I am taking a bit of a punt on this one, because it can be difficult to be sure who the artist is of an unsigned work… you have to go on style alone. I haven’t seen much lately that I could nail down as a dead cert Dog Bless the Band piece, although there have been a few candidates. He used to make it a bit easier by always writing MOTEL with a very distinctive ‘M’, but those are not necessarily the letters here. The selection of modest earthy colours is another indicator as well as the soft and blended fill style. Looking at his previous work, I think that I am reasonably confident it is the work of Dog Bless the Band.

I have to say that I am a big fan of this style of writing, there is something organic and ‘mother earthly’ about it. It is gentle and unthreatening, almost as if created by nature itself. I will be on the lookout for more from this artist, and may have to raid my archives to dig out some ‘probables’ that I can attribute to him. Very nice piece.

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.
