Monday Mural - Smile and the whole world will smile with you

These photos were taken a few weeks ago when I had lunch with a friend in the suburb of Mount Lawley. This long mural of different faces depicting the many races and nationalities living in Perth, was painted by Perth artist Jerome Davenport.

It is found on one of the walls of a car park at Beaufort Street - which also has an interesting sign (last photo). And of course I love all the smiling faces of the mural.

Have a wonderful week!

 



The Beaufort street car park sign is also intersting

    1. I agree Red Pat, I've tried smiling at strange people as I pass by them on the pavement and almost everyone will smile back!

  10. Wow, Sami. These faces are incredible. Very impressive, and it seems you have found some great ones. I also liked the car park sign. It's amazing how much you can find, because you are SO good at it.

    I would have stopped by earlier, but my time has not been my own of late. Thanks so much for the various visits. They meant a lot, even if it took me this long to reciprocate!

    1. Thanks Elizabeth, you don't have to reciprocate all the time, I understand not everyone has the time. I know how busy you are sorting out your friend's cluttered house. Have a lovely weekend!
