Volcano Head Dino at Bristol Festival

Painted at Bristol Festival 08 alongside loads of other writers and that. Ten years since walls On Fire innit - big graff event that was held around the same area of Bristol with loads of artists involved.

Based on Pachycephalosaurus. Bonehead dino that went around head butting each other. This one has a volcano and mountains for skull and spikes. The close up shows the small lake for an eye with a sail boat on it and houses.

Golden City Dragon

Dragon/Dino head made up of high rise buildings. Fall/Autumn theme, although the weather here at the moment is more grey than golden. Acrylic and spraypaint. 290mmw x 420mmh. This is going to be the last one of these type of pieces on paper I will work on for the time being. I have lots of other ones planned but will be switching over to doing canvas works next. This piece and the other ones in the series are for sale, if interested drop me an email - andrew.council@gmail.com

Farmyardeez collaboration at Project 360

Fresh from completing work on the Horfield Skatepark project, me and my mate went and did this collaborative piece down at the Project 360 Festival in the centre of Bristol. Project 360 is a two-day extravaganza featuring some of Britain's best urban artists and urban sports people. There was loads of people skating, breaking and all sorts going on when we got there.

We decided to kind of stick with the dark theme of the skate park and did a Tree with Crows in on a blood red sky background. The tree shape is kind of based around the shape of a Triceratops skull with Crows where the eyes and nose would be. Faded out the background in a kind of bloodshot eye effect where it goes to white around other persons piece.

Was good fun, if rather tiring, going on an all day painting mission.

Other artists painting down there included - Paris, FLX, Feek, Yaka, Cheo, Hine and Dan.

More pics of Skatepark Graff...

Here's some more pics from the skate park Graffiti project me and my mate did with young people in Horfield, Bristol UK.



Thought I would go for a dino skeleton this time. We were going for a kind of Horror movie, Nightmare Before Christmas vibe. It's set in a kind of Graveyard with Tomb Stones and broken skate decks.

Here's the piece with my mates 'The Graveyard Shift' piece.



Also did these Rollerblading Crows with the kids, sticking with the spooky theme. They proved quite popular. There are lots of Crows round this way on the common.



All in all the project went really well and there are some really artistically talented young people who skate there.

Chicken Head at Skatepark

I'm currently painting my local Skatepark in Horfield, Bristol with my mate and some of the kids that skate there. Will be posting a load of pics soon when it is finished, but thought that I would quickly stick this one up - Skateboard Chicken Head!

Yes Alan - I did stick this pic up on my blog at the end of the day like you said I would.

Window Drawing at Brick Lane Gallery

Last Sunday (17th August) I was at the Brick Lane Gallery London where I did one of my window drawings. It was part of their Free For Wall Street Art exhibition which I was part of.

The dinosaur I drew was made up of Spraypaint and other tools of the trade of a Street Artist. It was based on the plant eating Parasaurolophus.

Here's the drawing I was working from and me doing the window drawing. Will see if I can find some better photos of the piece soon.




The day went well. It was very busy with the Sunday market going on too so lots of people passed by and stopped to look and take pics.
