Summer ends

A perfect summer

ends with a grand finale

rain showers forecast

  • 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
