I have mentioned before, that there are some wonderful schemes in Bristol that are looking to refresh and tidy some of the city’s little back streets and alleyways furnishing them with planters for pollinators and brightening up the walls with wildlife-inspired murals. The group that organises this is called the Pollinator Pathways Project. I have aready posted some of the murals from St Mark’s Avenue in Easton.
This is a little Cul de Sac near Greenbank Cemetary and the first piece I am featuring from here is a beautiful Kingfisher by Brof. I have not come across the artist before, but I believe he is based originally in Malvern but paints murals in Bristol. This is a lovely stylised piece that captures the poise of the kingfisher well, and fits snugly into the space on the wall. Great stuff. Note to self – do that gallery of kingfishers!
