This is a wonderful piece in Lucky Lane, which I understand might have been painted for World Women’s Day in March this year, and not part of the Bristol Mural Collective paint jam. It is a collaboration between Amy Lee Jones and Emma Char and really rather special.

It is hard to know how the collaboration was divided up between the artisrts, but I would guess one of them took care of the portraits and the other the patterns on the clothing and the writing. It is a very calming piece and a fabulous celebration of women by women. The words ‘Like other women’ can have several meanings, which is a clever touch.

This is another piece from the Bristol Mural Collective paint jam on 8 March to celebrate International Women’s Day – and what better way to celebrate than to paint a few walls.

This piece, on the right, is by Amy Lee Jones, an artist whose website states that she is from Leiden in the Netherlands, although I am guessing she is living or staying in Bristol at the moment. Primarily a studio artist who is focussing on abstract realism portraits, this piece is inspired by @reedamberx, and is quite different to her studio work.

To the left is a very powerful portrait piece, which I think is also by Amy Lee Jones, but can’t be completely certain. The style looks the same. These paint jams are always a great opportunity to be introduced to a whole raft of Bristol artists that might otherwise be overlooked.
