Cliftonwood Coloured Houses, Bristol Greeting Card

Cliftonwood Coloured Houses, Bristol greeting card is from North East artist Emily Ward's beautiful range of blank art cards. This greeting card has been created from original art by Emily.

Emily Ward’s art greeting card presents a bright view of Bristol’s famous coloured houses, perched on a hillside above the water. The top row of homes is painted in cheerful shades of blue, yellow, pink, orange, and turquoise, standing out vividly against the deep green of the trees behind them. Their playful colours create a striking contrast with the softer, more muted tones of the houses in the foreground, which sit closer to the water's edge.

The river at the bottom reflects hints of the sky and buildings above, with gentle brushstrokes and dappled colours suggesting light rippling across the surface.

This art giftis brought to life with splashes and dots of colour, adding texture and energy to the piece. A dreamy sky is painted in soft purples, yellows, and pinks.

Cliftonwood Coloured Houses, Bristol

The colourful houses of Bristol are one of the city’s most charming and iconic sights, bringing a vibrant character to its hillsides and harbourside areas. Found in neighbourhoods like Cliftonwood, Totterdown, and Hotwells, these rows of brightly painted terraced homes create a cheerful patchwork of pinks, blues, yellows, and greens.

Originally painted to brighten up the industrial cityscape, they have since become a symbol of Bristol’s creative and independent spirit. Set against the backdrop of Bristol’s historic architecture and steep streets, the colourful houses not only offer a picturesque view but also reflect the city's diverse, artistic, and welcoming identity.
