Painted in November 2016 by UK born artist Marina Lommerse at Florence Park, on Marine Parade.
This community managed park, is planted with native plants to attract native birds, and has areas for children and adults to interact with nature.
The 18mt (59ft) long mural called "Carnaby's Food Forest" with Carnaby black cockatoos reminds us of the bird life we are losing in urban areas, and how important it is to supply food sources like native plants, as well as providing learning opportunities.

At Ruocco's Restaurant, where we had lunch, a couple of walls in the main dining room were also adorned with murals with Italian landscapes.
...great murals, the place looks interesting even without the murals. Thanks for hosting.

Thanks Sandee :) Have a lovely week too.
DeleteObviously I applaud the restoration of native habitat in the city, and the fact that murals are used in this sort of educational manner seems especially laudatory to me.
ReplyDeleteThanks David, a very good initiative indeed :)
DeleteO restaurante foi o que chamou mais a minha atenção.
ReplyDeleteBoa semana
E a comida era boa tambem :) Obrigada Pedro.
DeleteWhat a beautiful place this is! I can´t even decide what I like best. I´m also back in Italy, too, in my mind, hearing the former GDR-saxony accent (as we travelled with a bunch of people from Dresden)!
ReplyDeleteBoth places had great murals, thanks Iris.
DeleteMurais muito interessantes e aproveito para desejar uma boa semana.

DeleteThe black cockatoo mural is amazing. It is most impressive and must be HUGE in real life. The children's area is adorable and the restaurant murals are outstanding. You find the best murals around. I'm keeping my eyes open now!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Elizabeth. I think once you start looking you'll actually notice them a mile away :) Good luck.
DeleteCharming place!
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda.
