I know I blogged this the other day, but I love it so much, here's an alternate view (and another one here...)
Bristol graffiti - I think it's some of the best in the world. These are my photos of it.

Threenine @ the Golden Lion
OK, so I don't know how long this is on for, but it's up at the Golden Lion - work from Cheo, Lokey, Paul Boswell, Cons, Zase and more. Worth a look in for sure.
(You'll note I've pinched this from ThreeNine's Flickr - but it's definitely also worth checking his site at www.threenine.eu where you can buy gorgeous prints from some damn fine artists, including all of these. If I had cash, etc etc, I'd definitely have on of the Cheo prints...)

Crimes on TV
But you can catch a preview of it on the BBC here - got to love that local news... And my teaser shots here (which'll have the 'making 0f' shots once the show opens to the public.
There's going to be lots of outdoor painting, a film weekend at the Cube Microplex 10th - 13th April, talks, tours, and possibly a photography show... It's crazy though, there's not been anything else like it at the RWA - the giant inflatable Filthy Luker tentacles over the staid front of the building are worth the trip up there just by themselves....

I'll say more later - but in the meantime imagine me full of paint fumes and kind of insane....
