Monday Mural - Sea Horse and Snake

On Saturday 25th July, on my way home from the South Fremantle Football club, after helping to decorate the hall for the Christmas in July event, I spotted a mural on a corner house at Wray & Attfield streets in Fremantle.

I haven't been able to find the name of the artist, but it appears it was a private commission just like the previous mural on those walls (see below).

If you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme is for you; 
just follow the Linky steps below.  Once you start looking you find murals everywhere.  
Be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters.  Looking forward to your mural finds posted this week.   Monday mural meme is posted at 12,01am Monday, Western Australian time. Thanks, Sami. 






 
I had a feeling I had seen another mural there a few years ago, and looking through my Mural photo file I realized that it was the same location of the mural below that I posted in May 2016.

  1. I wouldn't want to walk past that sea snake after dark. It looks vicious. But the sea horse and the beautiful lady are great. So glad you shared it and the "before" mural, too. Have a good week, dear Sami. I'll be back next week.

  4. Even though it's a private commission it's a shame the artist was not able to add his (her?) name, so that we would be able to recognize other work of his (hers?) if we come across it.

  5. Dearest Sami,
    The seahorse is cute.
    But the snake mural misses sections of the snake, only its tail and head are shown completely.
    You had a good memory of that very same location! So they painted over the previous one obviously...
    Hugs,
    Mariette

    1. The second photo has the whole snake Mariette. Difficult to photograph closer as the street is narrow.

    3. That’s alright. It happens sometimes.
      I know Many people don’t like the snake, but I think I like it! It gives the streetart more character.
      Have a great week, Sami!
