What a lovely and rather original piece this is from Sprat, who really doesn't paint on our streets nearly as often as I would like to see. I think I have photographed four of his works, of which this is one, but that is over a period of a year or two. His work always makes an impression because of its originality.
Sprat, Greenbank, Bristol, March 2023
The first thought that came into my head when I saw this, was the film 'mask' starring Jim Carry, but the more I look at it, the more I realise how this piece is nothing like the Mask character. The overall image is striking, and the colour of the hat contrasts so well with the sickly green of the face. This is a nicely designed and stylised portrait piece, and I'd love to see more like this.
