Dirtygypo, Brunel Way, Bristol, June 2026

Having been quite quiet over the winter months, Dirtygypo has had a recent pulse of activity, painting in several of the spots around the city. This piece was painted next to one by Biers which I posted yesterday.

As ever, I struggle to read Dirtygypo’s letters – I have managed it once or twice – but in the main he outfoxes me (it is possible it reads DIRTY). Characteristic of his work is the skull-like first letter and the lightening bolts that separate letters in his writing. The whole thing hangs together nicely, and I rather like his lettering style. More to come.

Since Biers introduced his Rabies letters he has been quite busy about the place, having spent a period in the doldrums feeling a little uninspired. This piece under Brunel Way is presented in softer, more gentle colours than its starker predecessors.

I have never thought about it much, but Biers’ lettering is verging on anti-style, although he tends to stick to a strict convention all of his own from piece to piece. The letters are filled in two tones of orange and cream with reversed out spots, all so characteristically Biers.

Logoe has painted a fair bit in Bristol this year, and as writing goes, this is one of his more conservative pieces without frills and decorations, just a straightforward example of script writing that he excels at.

The ‘wall’ in this case is actually a piece of canvas fabric that has been stretched between some fence posts, quite why I don’t know, in fact I’m not too sure what that bit of fence is doing in the first place, stuck under the flyover. Most of the pieces painted here tend to be fairly modest, perhaps it isn’t particularly inspirational. More to follow from Logoe.

Lupa is Lupa. Her work comes straight out of the school of ‘what you see is what you get’, and I love it. There is an authenticity about her presentation, which can look a little scruffy around the edges sometimes, that gets to the heart and soul of graffiti writing in Bristol.

This piece features her characteristically chunky letters, filled with a nice combination of purple and mint green and some reversed out spots and lines. I believe that I have only met Lupa once – I think it was at the Cheltenham Paint Festival – but her artwork transmits positive vibes and a cheerful, carefree disposition. Her work always cheers me up. You can see her updated gallery here.

Dibz and Fade, Brunel Way, Bristol, April 2026

Dibz and Fade are cooking on gas, and are churning out some superb pieces with alarming regularity. This particular spot on the side of a wooden constructed half-pipe has become a particular favourite for the pair.

As I have mentioned in previous posts, I am a big fan of the Asterix series of books (I have them all), so this Dibz piece with Getafix holding up a flask of magic potion is certain to grab my attention. The black writing with its red drop shadow is faultless, but it is the character that wins the day for me.

Fade, who has been almost completely absent over the winter has painted these stunning letters which are just so neat and sharp. Sometimes fancy fills simply aren’t needed. There is a wisp of green fumes and some bubbles that bind the two pieces of wildstyle writing together. Fine stuff.

Back in his favourite spot, Maybe has started painting his unique dreamy pieces once again after a lengthy break. I haven’t quite worked out his technique in full yet, but he makes good use of stencils to pick out some clear distinctions between different elements of his pieces.

This one features one of his favoured motifs, that of a silhouette face with pursed lips. He has selected some lovely colours, and blended the colour transitions really well. It is so good to see him out and about painting again.

Jee See, Brunel Way, Bristol, March 2026

Jee See’s work may not be to everyone’s taste, but I have a real soft spot for its authenticity and the way it represents so much of what grassroots street/graffiti art is all about in Bristol. This column piece plays host to one of his signature ‘seismic’ pieces.

The chunky letters form a deep-set block draped down the column. The chrome letters take on an interesting reflective look, picking up on various tints from the light beyond the flyover. Jee See doesn’t paint all that much these days, so I like to post his work when I find it.

Creamylines, Brunel Way, Bristol, March 2026

As pieces go, this one by Creamylines, is on the small side. It is painted on a column under Brunel Way, but even at this size it packs quite a punch. 2026 has definitely been a bumper year so far from Creamylines, who appears to have come out of his shell a bit, and is painting new character pieces as well as his ‘stained-glass’ effect pieces like this one in more places around the city.

Everything that is fun about Creamylines’ work is crammed into this small space; the sun, the birds, figures, hills, trees and eyes. It is all here squished together into a coherent landscape. Such wonderful and uplifting work.

Conrico, Brunel Way, Bristol, March 2026

Generally speaking, rounded column pieces are a real pain from a photography point of view. For an artist they offer a large canvass in a small space, but as the piece wraps around the column, it becomes a challenge for the photographer. I have wondered whether the panorama setting on an iPhone would work, I’ll have to give it a try next time, but I doubt it.

Given my reservations about columns, Conrico has done a perfect job here. His vertical piece is of a Japanese style street lantern with its glowing orange light and atmospheric steam rising from the ground.

The piece wraps around the column, but not too far, so it is possible to get a sense of it from the front. Conrico continues to impress with a positive and impactful series of outstanding pieces this year – more to come.

He’s back! Maybe is painting again after a long pause, with this wonderful interlocking face piece, so distinctive and beautifully presented in his unique styling. I know that this isn’t a one-off and will be searching for more when I return to Bristol later this afternoon.

Maybe uses a combination of techniques to achieve his touching and imaginative pieces, and the end result is always something to examine and ponder on. Some nice shading adds to separating these two faces, augmenting the strong black outline. It is so good to see him back decorating our walls and columns once again.
