Murals are fascinating. Though sometimes I have to look at it longer than usual to understand its message. https://gsilvosatrekpix.com/murals-at-fener-and-balat/

Thank you for your comment and public art share. I agree murals are fascinating. Some murals are simply colourful paintings that the artists felt like creating at the time. Some murals carry a more serious message.

I love public art murals. Parksville is just beginning to get some. We even have one now on Steadman’s long grey walls. The murals that you shared here all look great!

Natalie,
You’re fortunate to have such lovely public art. I don’t think we can paint utility boxes where I live–I need to check that out. Thanks for sharing! Joe

Joe, Toronto has a program for artists to paint utility boxes. I’m sure if your local government allows it, there will be more colours and art around town.
