Monday Mural

As I write this, a chicken biryani is being cooked. I've already eaten, but there will be some for my lunch tomorrow. Cooking a meal here is a production bigger than Ben-Hur. 

Sami is back and so on with the mural. 

I saw this mural just two days ago, and I thought I'd posted it already, but it is still in my mural folder, so I guess not. It's quite a large mural.

  6. What is all that rubbish hanging in front of the mural? She needs a clean view of the lane.

    Very amusing. Images of the boys scuttling about. And I love your references!

    1. Cloudia, cooking and eating is what we have to do, but for me there is little pleasure in it. They just love cooking, all the preparation and then the finished meal. They are 21 and on a fast learning curve about cooking (and cleaning up afterwards).

  9. How in the world do artists create those huge murals? This one is stunning and detailed. But how?

    1. Strayer, something I wonder about, translating what is in your mind to something huge.

  10. Very nice face, looks familiar, rock star?

  11. I see I might be mistaken thinking that face is male and quite young, under 30 at least.

    1. That's interesting River. I never considered it could be an androgynous male.

    1. Fun60, they make a disaster zone and then clean up afterwards. Not my way of cooking, but then I don't cook.

    1. Ingrid, I should have taken a look to see if I could see a name, but there was so much obstruction.

    3. Bingo Debby. I might have known Adnate was involved with a work of that standard.

  17. A great way of improving an otherwise ugly wall.

  18. I suppose that she's (he's?) seen as being 'sultry', but really, what I see is someone giving me real 'stink eye'. Well painted, but really, it doesn't "do" anything for me. Unlike your 'lads', who seem to be doing quite a lot for you. AND cleaning up once they're done!

    1. Debby, she doesn't look at all friendly, does she.

    2. I don't see sultry, I see longing, "I want to belong but where do I fit?"

  19. That's amazing mural. I'd love to know the story behind it.

    1. JB, I can only see that it is 11 years old, and as mentioned the artists were Adnate and Shida.
