Monday Mural - Famous Faces - Bondi Beach III

Mural at the "Bondi Graffiti Wall". Photos were taken during my visit to Sydney in October 2018, when I visited Sculpture by the Sea in Bondi Beach, Sydney.
I think you might recognize a few famous faces.

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.

  1. It is interesting how many of those faces are instantly recognizable; I suspect more than any other time in history.

    1. I suppose with our access to the media it's so much easier to become familiar with the most known film stars, sports people, politicians, etc.
      Thanks David

  8. I also only recognized about a quarter of the people in the mural, but the ones I did recognize are certainly recognizable. I so enjoyed the black murals superimposed with the rainbow of colors. Whoever drew these was amazing.

    1. Thanks Iris. This one didn't have many people in front of it, but some murals did, with people leaning against the wall...so I had to leave those.

  13. That's a nice one, Sami. Many faces I know and even the style as someone earlier said, speaks Warhol!

  15. Many I don't have a clue. I'm not very good with celebrity. Just don't care I guess.

    1. Thanks Sandee. Quite a lot of faces are of film stars, singers and there are a few politicians too.

  16. Dearest Sami,
    No, only recognized two of them...
    Fun idea though and it makes people linger and look and talk about it.
    Hugs,

    1. The mural wall has been there for a while, but the murals change every 6 months apparently, with only 2 permanent murals. Thanks Joan.
