148. Midland Street (2)

I think that this street and its immediate surroundings are my favourite places for viewing great street art. It is a quiet backwater, and the walls are perfect to spray and easy to photograph.

This new piece by Deamze is just so good. A wildstyle burner and so much more, just beautifully executed. Deamze manages to get fantastically clean lines and his choice of colours seems to be never ending.

The crocodile and robot characters just add that little bit extra to this great piece. There is another wonderful burner right next to this one, and once I am certain I know who it is by, I will feature it too.

104. Jubilee Street (2)

I have just been checking up on Streetview to recall the place I photographed this wall. It is Jubilee Street, and the amazing thing is that there has been a massive turnover of high quality street art in this area (since the last release of Streetview in 2014). Obviously I will have to venture here more frequently.

I have delayed posting this fabulous piece because I wasn’t sure who sprayed it – then I saw the signature in the chewing gum under the shoe. The artist is Deam. I have plenty more of his works to post in the future. I have a feeling that SPZero76 might have had a hand in this too.

I love this work and I love the area.

103. Frogmore Street (5)

This collaboration rounds off, for the time being, the different works of Bristol artists in this area. The wall in question is directly below the Banksy, and adjacent to the 45RPM and RichT wall.

It is a cheerful piece by Silent Hobo, Cheo and Deam (who seems to sign himself with variants of Deam, Deamz or Deamze). Each artist has sprayed a separate part of the wall in their own distinct styles.

The wall has been repainted reasonably regularly, although this has remained for a couple of years. I fully expect it will change again this year. The wall gets a load of attention from visitors who come to look at the Banksy above it.

I am fond of this work.
