Daz Cat – Natural adventures

7453. Brunel Way (349)

Daz Cat, Brunel Way, Bristol, January 2026

Unlike many other artists in Bristol, Daz Cat has had quite a productive winter. This column piece under Brunel was is an absolute delight, and typical of his constantly developing and improving work.

This lovely cat is wearing a white hoodie with fancy orange draw strings. There are slots for the ears, a lovely detail that demonstrates the thought that went into the piece. On the nose is a heart, which is one of several shapes that Daz Cat likes to paint; others include arrows and leafy designs. A lovely piece from one of my favourite Bristol street artists.

7445. St Werburghs tunnel (564)

Daz Cat, St Werburghs, Bristol, January 2026

Wow, this is a superb on-message piece by Daz Cat painted to celebrate Tera’s birthday. As we know, Tera is rather fond of his scary horror pieces and so Daz Cat has leapt straight in there with a cat horror piece of his own.

Daz Cat has managed to capture a menacing look in this cat portrait piece, that has a tortured face. The cat creature appears to be emerging from a flower stem, and the two orange ‘hands’ are cat-like flower heads. This is a curious and imaginative piece by Daz Cat and a thoughtful contribution to the celebratory paint jam.

Scrapy and Daz Cat, M32 roundabout, Bristol, January 2026

I have said before on Natural Adventures that there are several different kinds of collaborations, ranging from light-touch painting together to hardcore total assimilation of two or more artists into a single piece. This collaboration by Scrapyardspec (who prefers to be referred to as Scrapy) and Daz Cat sits somewhere in the middle of the spectrum. Their styles are distinct, but the colour scheme is common, and the outcome is a single piece.

The fusion, has a Scrapy character with googly eyes nestled atop a Daz Cat cat. Although the styles are so different, the collaboration works well, and from a viewers perspective it is always great to see artists adapting and working together. By the time I got to the piece, some idiot had tried to slap a poster or two over it, but these had been ripped off, leaving a bit of a mess in the middle. Nice combination.

7397. Turbo Island

Daz Cat, Turbo Island, Bristol, December 2025

It has been an age since I last posted anything from Turbo Island, and how nice that it should be this wonderful twin cat piece by Daz Cat. I guess that these cats are conjoined twins or in old language Siamese twins, which works quite well with the feline subjects.

This piece reminds me of another one by the artist that I posted a while back from a wall up by the Narroways nature reserve. It is obviously a theme that Daz Cat enjoys painting, and he does a pretty good job of it. One for the cat lovers.

7379. BB Gallery (10)

Daz Cat, BB Gallery, Bristol, December 2025

Having seen an Instagram post by Conrico, I knew that there was some new work in the BB Gallery a week or two back, so I immediately hot-footed it over there to take a look. I was doubly rewarded, not only to find the Conrico piece (coming soon) but also to find this superb character cat by Daz Cat.

The bright cat person is wonderfully illustrated with lots of colour and detail, I particularly like the peace sign made with her right hand. There is an optimism and joy about the piece which I hope is a signal for a great year to come for Daz Cat and for us all.

7276. Horfield skate park (15)

Daz Cat, Horfield skate park, Bristol, October 2025

I don’t visit Horfield skate park all that often, maybe two or three times a year, as turnover tends to be very slow there, but there can sometimes be one or two surprises, and amongst them on my last visit was this beauty from Daz Cat.

This double portrait piece featuring a fusion of Daz Cat’s cat and human forms is a feast for the eyes. The female on the left is more human (in spite of the blue skin) and the male on the right, more cat-like. Together they make a nice pair and demonstrate Daz Cat’s continual improvement.

7247. River Avon (98)

Daz Cat, River Avon, Bristol, September 2025

Daz Cat is a brilliant character artist, and continues to develop his style, which is becoming increasingly sophisticated and detailed, as you can see if you scroll back in this updated gallery of his work. This piece is painted on a bridge column alongside the River Avon (it is mid-low tide when this picture was taken)

In this clever piece, a cat person is holding/cuddling a pet cat – where does that leave us? There is a load of personality and in both characters, and the pet cat doesn’t look overjoyed with the way it is being held. Some great colours in the piece too.

I managed to catch up with Daz Cat a week or so ago in St Werburghs tunnel where he was painting a superb piece for Kool Hand’s birthday celebration paint jam – Unfortunately, when I returned four days later, his piece had been painted over by Sled One and Oust, which is a real pity.

7220. River Avon (96)

This door, at the back of a light industrial estate alongside the River Avon, has to be one of the most decorated in Bristol, although most of the time the quality of work is fairly poor. This superb cat by Daz Cat is an exception, and just shows what a good piece of artwork can do to a scruffy door.

Daz Cat has filled the space expertly with a blue faced cat wearing a white-collared orange top. Although the piece looks like it might have been painted quickly, the detail in the face of the cat is neat and tidy. There is lots of depth and contours on this three-quarter profile portrait… great work.

7208. Lucky Lane (11)

Daz Cat, Lucky Lane, Bristol, September 2025

Although I came across this garage shutter piece by Daz Cat when I went to photograph pieces from the Bristol Mural Collective paint jam in Lucky Lane, I have a feeling that it may have been painted some time earlier, but I am not really sure. Well, there you have it… I just checked his Instagram account, and it was indeed painted at the paint jam.

The unusual piece features a blue-faced cat-girl clutching a gold medal, having come first in the rat race. I expect that the smartly dressed appearance is a reference to that, and the rats relate to a more literal interpretation of the phrase. A fun piece from Daz Cat on a tricky surface.

7169. Cumberland Basin

Daz Cat, Cumberland Basin, Bristol, August 2025

What a strange piece from Daz Cat. A cat and a character, but what brings these two together? I can’t figure out the story at all. I think this is the first cartoon-style figure I have seen of a person like this from Daz Cat.

The character reminds me of Cletus Spuckler from The Simpsons, he has that kind of hillbilly look about him. I love the way that Daz Cat is always pushing his own boundaries, and loves to tell a good story through his art.
