displayio.release_displays()
display_bus = displayio.FourWire(spi, command=tft_dc, chip_select=tft_cs)
display = HX8357(display_bus, width=480, height=320)
# Make the display context
splash = displayio.Group()
display.show(splash)
color_bitmap = displayio.Bitmap(480, 320, 1)
color_palette = displayio.Palette(1)
color_palette[0] = 0xFF0000
bg_sprite = displayio.TileGrid(color_bitmap,
