7516. Berwick Road

I feel particularly squeezed for time today, so this might be short. As you will know the lion’s share of my photographic street art trips are accompanied by my dog. We wander about in some of the less desirable places of the city and snap away. Occasionally he will pull me in a direction I wasn’t planning, but that may lead to a new discovery, and so it was when I found this modest piece by 3Dom.

Painted on a rather grubby hoarding, the letters 3DOM can clearly be made out. I love his style of writing, which he has made all his own, and it is always immaculately presented. He includes the words ‘there were lobsters on the Titanic waiting to be eaten’, which I think means that there was a small and just breadcrumb of a positive outcome from the sinking of the Titanic – there might be a hint of class war in the sentiment too. My guess only – It isn’t a phrase I have heard before.

I was tipped-off by Jee See that he had painted this piece in Dean Lane, and a couple of days later he was painting on the roundabout, unfortunately I arrived at that one literally minutes too late, as someone was painting over his piece there. At least I got to this one in time.

I have enjoyed Jee See’s work for years now, having first met him a long time ago under the M32, while he was painting a column there. His SEISMIC pieces have become a signature design, in which he folds his letters on top of one another and makes them stand out with deep drop shadows. This one is painted in rather downbeat greys and blacks, but manages to command this end of the wall. Great to see Jee See out and about.

7514. Sparke Evans Park (144)

Biers, Sparke Evans Park, Bristol, February 2026

I knew from my Instagram feed that Biers has changes his letters recently from WD40 to RABIES, and this is the first piece that I have seen in his new persona. I have to say that I really like his choice and the enthusiasm that has come with it. Furthermore, I think it gives him more scope than his former WD40 option.

The letters in this wonderful chrome piece are a little unruly, in a good way. I also note that the second half of his letters BIES, isn’t too far away from BIERS, which are the letters I first associate with him. The sparse decoration in the letters is just the right amount, and the contrast with the red background separated only by the thinnest of yellow lines. This might signal the start of a refreshed Biers – I hope so.

Seed, Dean Lane, Bristol, February 2026
Seed, Dean Lane, Bristol, February 2026

I enjoy observing new artists who try to break out onto the scene, and after all, all graffiti/street artists have to start somewhere. As they progress, they will make mistakes, both in their art, and equally importantly regarding etiquette. Even I fall foul of this from time to time – there are codes and principles, even if there are ‘no rules’. On this occasion, Seed painted his large letters recently, over a beauty by Werm. Generally speaking you shouldn’t paint over something that you are not equal to or better than, and Seed isn’t yet at Werm’s level. The logical consequence is that you end up with only high-end pieces on all walls, and that is where taggers and bombers come in, freeing up walls to be painted again.

Seed is learning gradually, and improves from piece to piece, but his work is still rather crude. His letters here are large and square, and his 3D drop shadow missing on the bottom of them. He is experimenting with some plasma lines to break up the large swathes of pink. He has also included a little cartoon-style character, completing the combination piece. Keep practicing and perhaps stick to practice walls for the time being.

Solar, Sparke Evans Park, Bristol, February 2026

Since first creeping onto my radar, Solar has gone from strength to strength, and is now turning out some high quality pieces that are most attractive to the eye. In this instance I will forgive the overwhelming amount of brown and concentrate on the style of the piece.

The letters are isolated from oner another thanks to a yellow drop shadow, and their shapes are rather unruly, although adhering to his overall style. Each letter has the appearance of a boulder with cracks running through, a fairly common device used in graffiti writing. The whole piece is finished off with some contrasting starbursts and a not to PLB (Placebo) and tribute shout-out to Paroe.

7509. M32 roundabout J3 (749)

Karmone, M32 roundabout, Bristol, February 2026
Karmone, M32 roundabout, Bristol, February 2026

This is the fourth piece from a collaborative wall, that offers a masterclass in wildstyle graffiti writing. A group of artists, from Cardiff I think, joined Hemper and Turoe to create this magnificent ‘gallery’, heralding a fresh start to 2026. The stunner was painted by Karmone, who has appeared in Natural Adventures a couple of times before, but is far from a regular.

The letters spell MRAK, which is KARM backwards. Every part of this writing oozes class, confidence and expertise. The letter shapes are disguised enough to make reading slightly tricky. The wonderful complementary colours transition perfectly with some clever techniques and devices being used. There is a great drop shadow bounded at the bottom with a fine pulsing yellow line. Even the dark grey background has subtle patterns, raising it above the ordinary. A lovely piece from Karmone.

Some beautiful and distinctive letters from Totosoapcity, who prefers to be referred to as ARSA. When I have time, I will change all the images I have of his work to ARSA, but this takes a lot longer than one might think. Rather like Werm’s pieces there is a lot of convergence on a bilateral symmetry in ARSA’s pieces, which is cleverly presented.

The grey and cream letters with a rather nice red drop shadow seem to ‘hover’ above a mustard yellow background. This is not an ordinary background, but one that has a kind of pixelated appearance, breaking up any monotony. A nice fresh and vibrant piece from ARSA.

7507. M32 Cycle path (308)

Redeye, M32 Cycle path, Bristol, February 2026
Redeye, M32 Cycle path, Bristol, February 2026

Redeye is a graffiti writer who is very much underrepresented in Natural Adventures. I can’t quite put my finger on why that might be, but he has been so productive in recent weeks, I feel it is appropriate to share his work. Whenever you see a piece by Redeye, you can pretty much guarantee that there will be a Nips piece nearby, as they frequently paint together.

Redeye, M32 Cycle path, Bristol, February 2026

The letters here have been reduced to RDYE, a shortening of his name. The subtle pink fill is decorated with lines and swirls patterning the whole thing in pinks grey and white. A deep black 3D drop shadow provides depth and separation from the wall and a vibrant light green border rounds it all off. Some observers have confused these letters with RYDER, a long-established graffiti writer in Bristol, but while they share some letters, their styles are quite different. Expect more here from Redeye in coming weeks.

7505. Brunel Way (350)

Turoe and Dibz, Brunel Way, Bristol, February 2026

This is a rather nice combination collaboration from Turoe and Dibz, and I think that Fade was there too, but possibly in a filming capacity. The depths of a wet and rather horrible winter seem to be dimming, and many artists are waking from their slumbers.

Turoe, Brunel Way, Bristol, February 2026
Turoe, Brunel Way, Bristol, February 2026

It turns out that this hoarding, which is actually the side of a large skate ramp, is becoming a bit of a honey-pot for high-end pieces. Although I can’t be absolutely sure, I think Turoe painted the TWC (The Wild Criminals) letters breaking out from the grey ‘wall’. Some great colours and textures in the fill, the hole and the wall.

Dibz, Brunel Way, Bristol, February 2026

I think that the Yosemite Sam character is the work of Dibz, which is unfortunately behind a bit of temporary railing, which I should have moved really for the photograph, but it is a real bit of street furniture that gets in the way from time to time, and adds authenticity to the record. The character is superbly painted, and so true to the cartoon character. Warner Bros and Looney Tunes would be proud.

Cesto One, M32 roundabout, Bristol, February 2026
Cesto One, M32 roundabout, Bristol, February 2026

This is another outstanding piece which was painted during a recent paint jam on the M32 roundabout showcasing some of the best wildstyle writing that you are likely to see, in terms of its sheer quality and pure class. This piece is by Cesto One.

Unfortunately I show my ignorance of artists not based in Bristol, and know little of Cesto One, and I don’t believe I have ever posted any of the artist’s work before. You only need to look at this piece once to see that it is painted by an established and confident writer. All the elements are tidy and clean, with outstanding fill transitions, subtle patterns, a gorgeous drop shadow with blended black and green, all set on a dark background and purple cloud. Fabulous work.
