I am joining with Sami and others for Monday Mural.

I'm sure if I like them or not but cannot help thinking of Salvador Dali. Thanks for sharing and be well, Andrew.
ReplyDeleteI decided that last one is rather to my liking. And they all need a symbolic crutch added. lol
DeleteThe second one arouses my curiosity Darla.
DeleteSo true. It provides lots of thought provoking imagery in retrospect.
DeleteHmmm...interesting. Not sure yet what to make of those.
ReplyDeleteMe either JayCee.
DeleteLike Darla, I prefer the last one.
ReplyDeleteSnowy, it does make more sense.
DeleteThe 2nd mural with snake hatching a python is so scary to look at
ReplyDeleteQuite so, Roentare. It keeps my eye the longest.
DeleteDefinitely eyecatching - and an improvement on blank walls.
ReplyDeleteHaha EC. Wall improvement is soft damning.
DeleteI love the blue tongue lizard but they are all rather stuff of nightmares.
ReplyDeleteMerlot, not something to dream about at all.
DeleteLooks pretty si fy to me.
ReplyDeleteThey do look si-fi Dora.
DeleteThey are a bit weird and arguably self-indulgent. Street murals should have appeal for ordinary folk and I don't think these three do.The best of the bunch is the tree-fish - making a connection between leaves and fish scales.
ReplyDeleteYP, it is good to have a proper artist's opinion. Thank you.
DeleteI do like the whimsy of the Fish Tree!
ReplyDeleteWhimsy Bob? I suppose it is really.
DeleteI would stop and stare, something I normally don't do when an electrical substation comes my way.
ReplyDeleteKirk, like it or not, it is something to stop folk to look.
DeleteOdd but entrancing, something fishy about that tree one :)
ReplyDeleteBoom boom, River.
DeleteThat's interesting Andrew, and the colours are nice.
ReplyDeleteThe basic background colour was a good choice Margaret.
DeleteDefinitely different- wonder who the artist was (and what he/she’d been smoking/ingesting/enjoying)
ReplyDeleteCathy, I wonder too about the artist. Whatever mood altering substance was taken during the planning, I don't see in the challenging end work.
DeleteI like them, especially the last one. Murals make utilitarian things so much more interesting.
ReplyDeleteJB, the substation was in a prominent place and would look rather plain without the murals.
DeleteI never see images like that in my imagination.
ReplyDeleteMost of us wouldn't TP, bur clearly some do and that pleases me.
DeleteSurreal! I love them. A merger of technology and nature.
ReplyDeleteGreat, Steve.
DeleteI like them but don't have any idea what the story is that they may be telling.
ReplyDeleteSometimes Pat we are just not meant to understand.
DeleteThe second one appears to be a snake, the third one a fish/tree. Very Dali like I think. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Andrew
ReplyDeleteSami, yes I can see the Dali style.
