A few months ago after searching on google maps to see how I could reach that spot, I parked the car nearby and walked a narrow track behind the golf course until I reached the boxes.
Both boxes were painted on all 4 sides, but one of them was behind a wired fence, so not easy to photograph, and with the Swan river just across from the freeway the sea motives and birds were just right.
Not sure who the artist is, it looks a bit like Amok Island's style, but I've been unable to find anything on these murals.
If you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme is for you;
just follow the Linky steps below. Be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters. Looking forward to your mural finds this week. Thanks, Sami.

Danke Noke :)
DeleteReal nice, Sammi
ReplyDeleteThanks Cloudia.
DeleteInteresting that the utility company has enabled these paintings on their boxes. At least I assume that the painter(s) didn't break through the fences!
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Thanks Mae. I assume he didn't break through the fences lol. I have seen other electrical boxes painted, so they must be commissioned by the utility company.
DeleteThey are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat :)
DeleteSome are very whimsical. I like the second one with just the feet showing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Andrew, that is a quirky one :)
DeleteSão fantásticos estes murais minha amiga.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e bom Domingo.

DeleteThese make me really, really happy -- they're just so darned much fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanie, glad you enjoyed them, I thought they were fun too :)
DeleteWhat a great find. These are all spectacular, but I like the man on the bicycle with the fish on his head the best. This is very clever art and SO unexpected, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Elizabeth. Glad you enjoyed the murals :)
DeleteThey are plain beautiful, Sami - wow, I "forgot" already about those never ending long drives to and fro work, glad you can mix a little fun in!
ReplyDeleteThanks Iris. Luckily I don't drive to the city to work, so avoid the "bad" traffic :) but now when I go to town I always look out for these boxes.
DeleteI love the man on the bicycle and I like the other ones
ReplyDeleteThanks Bertie :)
DeleteI really like the patterns and colours of these cheerful and imaginative murals. Have a nice week
ReplyDeleteThanks Kwarkito, I love the colours too :)
DeleteThey certainly brighten up such a dull piece of concrete. The murals are wonderful painted.
ReplyDeleteI agree those boxes look so much better now Marianne :)
DeleteGreat murals only a pity for the fences in front.
ReplyDeleteThanks Stef.
Deletethese are just wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Klara :)
DeleteWhen I saw the man, fish and bike this expression came to mind.
ReplyDeleteA woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle!
I had a good laugh at that expression Jackie, I'd never heard it :) :)
DeleteOh well done Sami! I have seen them in passing also. They really are super and deserve to be shown, sounds like they were tricky to get to, nice work ☺
ReplyDeleteThanks Grace, yes a bit out of the way.
DeleteThese are great! Very creative and bright.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda :)
DeleteWe have several very bland electrical substations which could use such delightful brightening up!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit Kenneth. Luckily we have quite a few electrical boxes that have been painted, and they look so much better :)
ReplyDeleteArt like this has the ability to enliven otherwise dull city spaces, and it sure beats mindless graffiti.
ReplyDeleteThanks David, certainly makes any dull space look so much better!
DeleteSuch a shame about the fence, but I thought the murals were brilliant and so colourful.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thanks Jan, I thought so too :)
