Events were calmer than they looked, protesters mainly stuck to their guns and their chants of 'peaceful protest' was upheld.

The police strategically moved and dispersed the crowd utilising dogs and horses in doing so.

bringing good vibes to dark spaces in Easton.

A huge collective project saw the dim and disheveled space under the stapleton road station flyover transformed over a few weeks of hard work and a few months of planning and funding applications.

One of the pillars was designed by the local group Peace of Art who set out to bring positivity and a bright attitude to the space.

who provided funding opportunities, are keen to make stations safe and inviting spaces, and are going above and beyond to extend their work to the nearby areas.

Passed by just starting this wall at the weekend.

Love seeing the final thing.

Glad to be spotting these around; head down to the end of minor road underpass before it goes.

In between clashes over the new Police and Crime Bill took place in Bristol an hour of calm was had as police gradually gained ground moving as a wall away from the police station.

Police dogs down Lewins Mead and a horse guard down Bridewell and Rupert Street later joined to move forward again to reinforce the city centre where more disruption was gathering.

Police numbers are almost equal to that of the protestors now and the drone of the helicopter overhead is unremitting.

So this was loitering at the bottom of my to do list for about 3 years, at which point I had started, and very quickely gave up on it.

Stupidly I offered to paint where my friends got engaged as a gift for them. Gold star goes to anyone who can correctly guess the location....?

I think I'll stick with photographs! As it's taken an embarrassingly large chunk of my last few weeks 😂 I like the sky? That's something right?

I have so much admiration to all the inspiring artists I've met recently, you have so much more skill and patience!!

Last night people came together (and stood apart) singing Christmas carols outside .

were kind enough to join together with the church in the organisation, traffic control duties and donated more than enough food to feed all the children (and some of the adults too 🙂).

There were a few tears shed as people realised what they had been missing the last year and how important to our lives they are.

Both beautiful and poignant, always packs a punch with his painting.

Not so much a case of the writing on the wall, as the picture; his work addresses world issues including extinction, flawed economics and food and water poverty.

If you're not already a follower, now would be a good time to get interested as I think we'll be seeing some hard hitting big ideas in the new year.

Shot at his studio, where he develops his ideas and refines his technique, he's not one for sitting still and resting on his laurels. Indeed the capacity for humans to learn, develop and change is central to both his life and work.

Artists and discussing future work in front of there mural

They collaborated to create this commission piece between , getting local groups feedback to create something the whole could feel a part of.

Needless to say that everyone who passed had a good word to say, so if you're going into town keep an eye out on the right for it, see if you can spot all the hidden details.

Get in touch with them or any of the other local artists and get some flowing through your space.

is showcasing 6 high profile local artists, if you're passing, stop by.

seem to have very successfully put some beautiful, meaningful and thought provoking work in what otherwise would have been disused shop fronts.

Take a pause from your shopping, warm your cockles, and appreciate something which isn't mass market advertising.

The artists are .f.t.e
