Clifton Graffiti
Because it’s a posh area, there’s not much graffiti in Clifton but there is some and it’s often more quirky than the brightly-coloured tagging popular in other parts of Bristol.
It’s a bit hard to decipher but the text reads “the way is in the heart” – yay, Zen graffiti!

These next two bits of graffiti have been ineffectively painted out, I love the resulting subtleness.
This one reminds me of Jean Dubuffet’s art…
