Bex Glover is an outstanding Bristol artist, graphic designer, illustrator and muralist, whose work can be seen on commissioned walls, and in various 'corporate' buildings in the city, much of it intact after several years. She is also a regular guest artist at Upfest events, and this is her superb piece for this year's festival.

This one is painted on another new wall for Upfest (at this rate the whole of Bedminster and Southville will be one continuous mural) and one that looks so much better for having a splash of paint. There are two animal characters, a crane and a fox, in this piece inspired by Aesop's fable 'the fox and the crane' with a working idea of 'putting differences aside'. A sentiment that could be adopted before, during and after our divisive General Election

The distinctive blue background with tree boughs and flowers is the perfect setting for the abstract animals. There is a calm and natural atmosphere that is created by her artwork, which is always such a joy to see. If I had money and a wall, I wouldn't hesitate to commission work from her, it ticks all of my boxes and some. This is a glorious piece and worth the extra yards to find it.
