No one can paint crustaceans & other sea life like Nick Sweetman
The Jeep? Okay, she’s not a sea creature, but unfortunately, she finds them tasty. She insisted on being in this blog post. Of course she is the most glamorous cat on earth at this moment, along with her BF, Emmy.

I send these flowers out to Carolee Croft.
She has done me the honor of reviewing “Nine Black Lives”, which I wrote several years ago.
She called it “glamorous” & we all know how I love glamour. I find it everywhere, even in alleys.
I went wild and used up the rest of my camera’s battery when I saw these.
Chris Perez has covered 2 sides of what I would call a very large shack. He’s turned a vicious eyesore, into a thing of beauty with his abstract floral painting.

Faces on walls are a fave of mine!
Yes, I have many graf faves and loves, and faces in alleys are one.
She’s a beauty!
Yes, I might over do it, but I can’t help myself!

I adore how the faces change from different perspectives!
Carolyn Page has sent us an Australian nature mural & a joyful study of its nature, just in time for the Vernal Equinox.
Carolyn says, ” It is above a travelator and smacks of all things Australian.”
“I’d love to highlight a few of the images such as our delightful Kookaburra; an Auzzie Icon.”
“Our beautiful Parrots, of which there are many and varied with beautiful colours; include this beauty.”
“Our Wattle Trees in bloom look glorious lining our major highways during late winter to early spring.”
“The wall art image doesn’t show their true high yellow colour, but, I was so pleased to see them highlighted as Australiana.”
“They are the little round bubble-like images below the Koala.”
“Then there’s the Banksia; a native plant so attractive in flower:”
“Australia just isn’t Oz without the Eucalyptus Tree’s Gumnuts acclaimed within author, Illustrator and cartoonist, Mae Gibbs’ children books, including ‘Meet Snugglepot and Cuddlepie’, her lovable bush characters.”
“Once again the wall art composition doesn’t highlight their true essence. However, the Eucalyptus Tree’s Gumnuts are, once again, iconic to Australia:”
“This little fellow is hard to see in the wall art, however, he is there hiding as usual. The Australian Possum is a nocturnal creature, though; he can be heard (if not seen) during the day scampering amongst the trees.”
“(Not to be confused with the Opossum, the Possum lives in trees and keeps very much to himself. He can be ‘tamed’ to a degree with enticing titbits to eat.)”
“Next is a little Golden Bell Frog frog.”
“He too is almost hiding. You can just see him in the lower right hand corner!”
“And last, but not least, is our cuddly Koala. He really is the cutest thing!”
⭐️ Thank you Carolyn! ⭐️

I had to keep waiting for the clouds to cover the sun, and it was worth the wait to get rid of the nasty shadows.

The Artists:
These 2 artists are members of Unceded Voices an Anti-colonial street artist convergence. Worth a look at, for sure!!!
I set out to find 4 murals I’d heard rumored.
I had to pass on #1, as I was running late due to DST! I found #2, but this is not it.
I found the blue cat, and I also found a trove of street and alley art on my way to 3 & 4.
The moment I saw the blue cat, I though Georgiann will love it! However, I found so much art, my battery had died when I arrived at 3 & 4.
I love it!

Internet was down for a few days, felt like weeks!
Finally, here is part 2 of this very original mural.
This part is more mixer, but the music has made it happen.
