2030. King Square Avenue (4)

Somehow this Deamze piece passed me by. Probably because this spot always seems to have one of his pieces in it…he owns the space. It is not a street with much other street art, so trips there are infrequent and therefore any refresh of this wall can be easily missed.

The work is not unlike his previous one here (see below) in so much as it is in his sharp and jagged style and has a hog character. So crisp and clean, just another example of the brilliance of this artist. Although I took the picture in August last year, I have only just got round to posting it. Worth the wait.

634. Raleigh Road vector (6)

It has been a little while since I last posted a Deamze piece, and somehow that just doesn’t seem right for this blog. It is possible that I have posted more of his pieces than any of the other Bristol street artists…but I am not counting.

This wonderful piece in greens and browns is on the hoardings next to the recent Voyder bones work. The wildstyle writing is as intricate and clean as you’d expect from a Deamze piece, and on the right hand side he features a cartoon hog (?) holding a little creature in its grip.

I’m sure I ought to know who the cartoon character is, but on this occasion I am stumped. Many of the cartoon characters that Deamze chooses to paint are from 1980s TV cartoons, but I was doing other more important things, and missed out on this TV toon culture. Perhaps somebody knows who it is.

I like always to photograph the D at the start of his lettering, just to compare the style from one to the next.
