This is a large production piece under Brunel Way, which is an RIP tribute piece dedicated to Lenzman, a Dutch drum and bass producer who died in July this year and was signed to Goldie’s Metalheadz label. The outstanding piece was painted by Dibz, Fade, Inkie, Cheo, Jody, Goldie and Soker. Legends all.

First up , Dibz and Fade have collaborated with some writing and a crown, with one or two characters joining them by Cheo.

Then we have Cheo, who has presented the Metalheadz logo alongside a couple of tulips, perhaps representing The Netherlands. Goldie has written Lenzman in his own special style while Inkie has topped the piece with the words ‘we’re still standing’.

Jody has provided a wonderful portrait of Lenzman in greyscale with a distinctive red wooly hat, a trademark item worn by the musician.

The next section contains writing by Soker and Fade, spelling out the names of Lenzman’s children and wife, Nya, Riva and Ashanti.

Inkie rounds off the whole production with a wonderful piece of writing ‘The Northern Quarter’ in his characteristic stylised writing. The whole thing is an absolutely superb and fitting tribute wall. Bravo!

A fresh crop of pieces appeared in the tunnel a week or two back, and this excellent writing from RBN One was among them. The letters are a deviation from his usual ARBIEN.

The piece is painted in a sumptuous combination of reds and blues, beautifully blended. The letters appear to spell BRIAN, although i don’t know the significance of this. Not only is the wall beautifully buffed, but the letters are sitting nicely on a lilac stamp, adding an interesting dynamic. Fabulous piece from RBN One.

My mini fishing holiday comes to an end, and we head home this morning, so I’ll be keeping this short. What a fabulous piece by Mesk on the swimming pool wall by Mesk.

The yellow letters spelling MOIKY, I think, have a beautifully deep drop shadow in blue shades, helping this vibrant piece to pop from the wall. A white border separates the writing from the graffitied wall, giving some definition. A fun piece from Mesk.

Well, this is something a little different from Dirtygypo. I can’t think of a piece by the artist that has strayed from his typical presentation, but this piece, although instantly recognisable as the work of Dirtygypo is surprisingly different.

I love it when artists deviate from their standard and experiment. The letters are much more uniform in height and rather “blocky”. I think they spell out QUICHO. There are some interesting fill colours which have hard interfaces between them, rather than blended and the whole thing is set within an interesting frame. A look at his gallery will show how different this piece is.

A quick glance back at my archive revealed this Tera piece from back in July this year. I have now idea how this one missed the first cut, but I will make up for it here.

This is another demonic combination piece by the Tattoo artist!with the evil character sandwiched between the words ‘Tera’ and ‘Graff’. The whole scene is a perfect representation of a demonic horror apocalypse with a background of bare trees and a murder of crows.

The demon is a little lost in the whole thing, so here is a close up. Great work from Tera.

Another fine piece from the Tickz tribute hoarding and another fine piece by Soker, one of Bristol’s legendary graffiti writers. The writing here, spelling Tickz, is both outstanding and fitting.

Unfortunately, the colours are not well represented here, as the sun was directly behind the hoarding and has washed out much of the colour and tone. It is still possible to see the fine craft of the work though. Great work.

Ok. I am now on my annual fishing trip in Cornwall, so this post, written last night will be short. Stivs is on fire. Everywhere I look I find his pieces, whether portraits, calligraffiti or combinations of the two.

This is a gorgeous piece of writing occupying a full section of wall at the Green. The elaborate letters spelling STIVS are stunning, and the colours look like precious gems set on a black background with hearts aplenty. Beautiful.

Sub, M32 roundabout, Bristol, September 2026
Sub, M32 roundabout, Bristol, September 2026

Reflecting back on the long hot dry summer, I would have to say that SUB is one of the most improved writers in Bristol. He has been relentless in painting his letters wherever he can it seems, and making them much more interesting with patterns, creative fills and adding the odd character here and there.

Sub has had a difficult challenge from the start by choosing only three letters, which tend to be large and so need a lot of work to make them stand out. Here he has managed to create a bevelled edge to his chrome letters, which works really well and together with a deep drop shadow creates plenty of depth. Running through the middle of the letters is a nicely worked blue plasma streak providing additional interest and without which the piece would be at risk of looking a little plain. This wall is a favourite spot for Sub, and there are layers of his pieces here, you might spot one or two.

This piece is the pick of three tribute pieces under Brunel Way for Slippy. I know little of Slippy, but the artist here is well known to Natural Adventures, Taboo. This is a classic piece of anti-style graffiti writing from the artist.

Taboo, Brunel Way, Bristol, September 2026

The letters spell out TABOO, although some might struggle to see all the letters immediately. Simply presented in white with a black border and some blood-red drips, perhaps symbolising death. This piece really encapsulates the edgy and underground nature of graffiti writing, and the kind heart that sits behind it.

It is rather unusual to find anything by Solar or indeed much of the PLB crew in Dean Lane these days, so this was a refreshing appearance. Solar has painted this wall which is rather challenging to photograph, because the left hand portion of it is in a very narrow passageway.

Solar often presents his letters in an unconventional and wobbly kind of anti-style, but his finishing and quality are far from an anti-style mindset. The letters are nicely filled with some fine black lines breaking up the monotony. There are plenty of white highlights and starbursts, creating a sparkle and the double border creates a tidy boundary between the letters and the black decorated background. A fine piece by Solar.
