I am so happy that this ‘gallery’ in Elton Street has been reactivated. It is a perfect place to showcase artists’ work without it being quickly tagged or overpainted. A classy display of Bristol and visiting artists.

This piece is by Mr Penfold and picks up on his colourful abstract designs that are well known in the city and beyond. A coming together of sharp-edged solid filled shapes and softer ‘cow-hide’ designs, creates a contrasting melee that demands to be observed and figured out. Great work from Mr Penfold.

When it comes to stylised pieces, this one from Jeroo is right up there with the very best. There are lots of things going on here, with a peacock being at the centre of it all.

Stairs and crystals and some other shapes make up the body parts of the peacock in this high-definition adventure. While the content of the piece is a little surreal, the execution and photorealism are on point. A superb piece from Jeroo.
