Ste J from Book to the Future sent us a mural from Boston.
“I found this one at the rear of the Symphony Hall which was just a short walk from where I was staying.”
“I didn’t get up early enough to beat the cars but it makes me happy that people see this mural everyday and is easily visible from the road as well.”
“It’s a wonderful piece this showing a variety of people and a real feeling of culture.”
“Music has a timeless feel and the power to move us, just like a good mural! I love the mixing of cultures it, provides a powerful statement about the universality of music.”
Ste J writes really great book reviews, some film reviews & once in a while a game review.

⭐ THANK YOU Ste J ! ⭐
There is no one I have ever met who loves books as much as Ste J, and I love that he finds a mural of writers when he finds a bookstore.
Click on the pic for a really great look at the authors!

“What could be better than browsing outside in the heat under the names of famous authors. If it is not enough to inspire, it also doubles as a reading list as well and if I may, I shall push you towards Italo Calvino and in particular Invisible Cities which is a wonderful book full of imagery and and magic.

Wonderful art… 🙂
I agree, and it really is fab what is painted in the streets! 🙂
Steve Johnson did a good job too, Resa. The paintings are marvellous. I’m so impressed ❤
Steve did a great job! I am very happy with this mural, and thank Steve a lot! xx
If I ever see a nice mural in Denmark I’ll send it to you. xx
Just beautiful. Lots of emotions and feeling. Lovely.
I’m so happy Ste J sent this in! It’s a strange hobby, but I love collecting street art!
You have me hooked now as well!
🙂 🙂
Put on your red shoes and dance in the street for our pleasure Resa sweet … !!!
Yes! As soon as I answer the comments, I will put on my red shoes & dance in the streets to a mural I saw a few days ago.
Thank you for such a lovely comment, Laurent!
You’m worth, lovely Resa … !!!
Reblogged this on Book to the Future and commented:
Making quite a team, once again I will kindly ask you to pop over to Resa’s blog to see a mural I noticed whilst wandering the streets.
Resa is just finishing up work on the TV show Sensitive Skin season 2 for all you TV buffs out there.
TY for the reblog!
Actually, Sensitive Skin II is now airing in several countries, including the UK. I’m finishing up another series with the same company that produced SS II. Whatever, it’s nice to be near the end of a shoot! 😀
Ah, sorry I shall amend that shortly, it’s hard keeping up with you sometimes lol.
As ever, a wonderful job and thanks for timing this for when I’m still catching up on all my writing!
It seems right to post this fab mural from Boston while your trip is still a fresh experience. You found a great work of street art. Write away, friend!
Well if you insist, I shall! Already a post ahead and hoping to get a few more written ahead of time too.
SO awesome Resa – they capture the feeling of producing and hearing music wonderfully. Love it!
It’s a good one for sure! I love it, too!
I feel the culture in the mural! Great choice from Boston and a fellow blogger we both are proud to know – Ste J! I hope you are doing well, Resa xo
I’m good, and almost ready to go home. Hope you are doing well, too! Ste J has a cool blog, and I always love it when he sends in a mural or street art. I love all submissions I get from anyone. xo
I’m doing well too, thanks, and keeping busy 😉 Are you looking for new submissions? I took photos a while ago to send you and I think they’re still on my phone!
Yes, I am taking submissions. I’m a bit behind posting, so it could take a bit of time to post. Summer is a busy time, and I’m headed to a Street Art Festival! Yahoo!
OK, great. No worries about taking time with the post as I’m totally behind in the blog world. I’ll look for the photos over the next week and email you when/if I find them 😉 Have fun at the festival!!
I think Ste J has a telescopic lens on his camera that enables him to photograph street art from inside the pub.
Hahaha! Lol! Perhaps you are right, Bumba. Nonetheless, this is an outstanding mural.
Absolutely stunning… Great urban art, with a nice cultural twist—
Love and best wishes. Aquileana 💛
It’s a good one! 🙂
Love these, Resa; there’s a beauty in them that the sepia-like treatment enhances beautifully. Well done to Ste J for their capture.
And well done to you, Miss Artist’s Friend extraordinaire.. 🙂
xoxoxo
I do love art & artists…. especially street art! 🙂 xoxoxo
Resa – Spectacular Mural and Wonderful Photos!
Thank you, Dave! It was very exciting to get this mural from Ste J.
“I didn’t get up early enough to beat the cars but it makes me happy that people see this mural everyday and is easily visible from the road as well.”
John Cleese did !

Big hug. Ralph xoxox ❤ #<
LOL! Yes, Faulty sure knows how to beat a car!
Such a beautiful work it is…glad you could walk by and see it !
It is a fab piece! I’m also glad Ste J got to walk by and see it.
Truly beautiful murals, Resa, and heartwarming to see this artwork embracing art and diverse cultures. Every time I see artistic murals (in SFran) I think of you…thank you for opening my eyes to it.
How wonderful that you think of me when you see murals. I feel really great about that! Ty, Jet!
Resa, these are fabulous! Steve Johnson does a good job with both the symphony mural and the famous authors. I do love outdoor art. The first picture especially caught my eye because that is Seiji Ozawa who conducted the Boston Symphony for years. I heard him conduct and he is brilliant. The artist was very skilled. I recognized him immediately.
Thank you, Brenda! I thought he looked familiar.Now that you have shed the light on his face, I must agree that it is a very well done portrait!
These are stunning!
Ste J really is THE consummate, quintessential book lover 🙂
