87. Moon Street (2)

On the site of a former SPQR spaceman (which for a while was thought to be a Banksy), there is now one of 3Dom’s latest creations. This has the unmistakable hallmarks of his work although it is unsigned.

More research is needed to understand what the alien in a sandscape is all about, but his works are always imaginative, colourful and dreamlike.

Our friend the gnome stencil has also made another appearance, and was added at a later date. I love this 3Dom work on a very famous wall in the Stokes Croft area.

64. Richmond Road

In deepest Bohemian Montpelier, Bristol, many of the homes and businesses have welcomed street artists to adorn their walls and shopfronts with murals. Every street is full of colour and surprises.

This beautiful mural created in 2013 is by Ryan Kai and is typical of his work, which carries a strong Latin American theme. He studied art at the University of the West of England in Bristol and graduated in 2009. Now living and working in North London, Kai has a really nice blog which gives you a great insight into his work and techniques.

I don’t know who is responsible for the little addition to this mural. A bit of fun.
