I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of Creamylines’ bright and optimistic pieces, and I am forever grateful that he seems to be upping the frequency with which he is painting. These things add up to an overwhelming sense of wellbeing and a distraction from the rather depressing world around us.

This is another column piece from Creamylines albeit in a part of town that I haven’t seen him venture to before. This one is a little tidier than some of his pieces, and incorporates a myriad of colours. Eyes, faces, hills, birds, mountains and a gorgeous sun are all incorporated in this landscape as I have come to expect. Fabulous fun, and more to come from Creamylines.

I like artists whose style is so unique, and their theme unwavering, that I derive a warm, comforting feeling when I see their work. Creamylines is the epitome of this. You know that you are going to get a landscape or scene with a rising or setting sun in the style of a stained-glass window, scattered with little treats and surprises along the way.

Creamylines has presented this landscape in a portrait format to fit onto the concrete column. The colour palette has stuck to blues, yellows, greens and purples and has quite a different appearance to some of his other pieces that include reds and oranges… more sombre, perhaps. Lots of hidden faces in this one and plenty of birds. There is a little clue to his approach to his art is at the bottom: ‘drawing everythings’.

It seems as though Creamylines has found a new lease of life, and although the last piece I posted by him was actually a repeat (thank you, Paul H for pointing this out), this is a spanking new piece in Dean Lane (one of several scattered around the city). This slab of concrete in the skate park lends itself really well to Creamylines’ bounded work (which makes me wonder whether he has ever painted up Purdown, it might suit him).

Instead of the more familiar portrait orientation, this is a landscape piece, that gives Creamylines more scope to broaden out his scene. Everything you’d want to see from this uplifting view is there. Water in the foreground, passing through to woodlands and fields and houses, all bathed in the light of a golden sun, with a couple of clouds and some birds. Calmness and joy.

  • It looks like today might be the last sunny and warm day of a glorious summer, but the lack of rain has caused all sorts of problems for farmers and nature, so the rain forecast for the next couple of weeks is actually very welcome.

There is something about Creamylines’ work that simply seems to tick all my boxes, and I always get a little endorphin rush when I find one of his pieces, especially as they are rather infrequent. His ‘stained-glass window’ style is unlike anything else in Bristol.

The column landscape piece contains all the things you’d expect to find in one of Creamylines’ works. A landscape of hills peppered with figures, faces and eyes, topped with breaking clouds and silhouettes of birds on a rising/setting sun. What is interesting is that the artwork is quite crude, but the outcome sophisticated. This is a wonderful and uplifting piece from Creamylines.

Here comes the sun… again
