This fox is one cool dude, loitering at one end to St Werburghs tunnel, either watching the world go by, or up to some kind of mischief, it is difficult to know for sure.

Foksymoron has definitely upped his game in recent months, and is beginning to add more detail to his character as it develops. The sunglasses are always present, but his selection of clothes is becoming more sophisticated, and the inclusion of a bit of hair underneath the cap is definitely a new idea working its way into his work. It is always great to watch on as artists try new things and push their boundaries.

Although he has been present across the city for a few years, Foksymoron (great name) has upped his game in the last few months and is becoming more prominent in both placement and size of his pieces.

This fox, alongside the River Avon fits the space really well, looking as if the for is loitering with intent. Hands in pockets and looking rather pleased with his cool look, the fox is a simple design which Foksymoron seems to be able to replicate with considerable ease. Bristol foxes… part of our urban furniture, both real and painted.

Feeling the heat

Temperatures rise

tempers rise in harmony

it’s time to keep cool

Ever so slightly cool

 

Soft wind sweetly blows

gently soothing sun-soaked skin

it’s not yet summer

A hotter than usual day

 

How sweet the cool air

brought in on southwesterlies

summer came and went.

British summer time

 

Cool sun, perfect sky

gusty wind cuts through the yard

September in June.

Relief

 

Cool damp air surrounds

my melancholic humor

offering relief.

Sitting in the cool

599. Old Bread Street (10)

This guy just gets better and better. It has been really interesting watching how Laic217’s work has developed over the last eighteen months or so, and being able to pick up on some of his motifs and styles.

In my view, this is his best piece of wildstyle writing to date, and the purple cat sets it off brilliantly. I love the fish bone logo on his jacket. The inclusion of the brick wall adds texture, and has been used in some of his previous works.

It looks like Laic217 spent a bit more time on this piece, and the clean finish indicates that it was time well spent. It has been a very busy period for the artist, and I have a couple more recent pieces to post soon. Really great stuff from a rising star.
