Monday Mural - Watertown Sea Creatures

With time to spare until the movie screening by the Portuguese Australian Women's Association in nearby Raine Square, I took the opportunity to visit the Watertown Brand Outlet Centre, at 840 Wellington Str, West Perth on the lookout for some winter boots.

Walking around I found various sea themed murals, painted by Perth artist Susan Respinger, during the months of March and April this year. Hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

I love murals and street art. 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 will find murals everywhere.  The "Monday Mural" meme goes live on Monday at 12,01AM, Perth,Western Australian time. Be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters. Looking forward to your mural finds this week.  Thanks, Sami.

  2. These are lovely. I like how the various sea creatures fit so nicely around the various structures. These are stunning and so well done. I love how it is called a LIFT in your country and an elevator in the States.

      It is funny how the same language has different words for the same thing.

    1. You are quite right Sharon. Not sure why the shopping is called Watertown, as it's nowhere near the water, lol.
