Monday Mural - East West Design 2

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.

Painted by the very talented Graeme Miles Richards, this mural on the other side of East West Design, a furniture warehouse in Marine Parade, South Fremantle.

He also painted the main shop front of the warehouse on South Terrace, and of course the lovely mural I showed last week in Bayswater.

The murals at East West Design are in my opinion one of the top murals in Perth!






Quokkas - the happiest animal on earth can be found at Rottnest Island, across from Perth *




* Quokkas are one of the smallest wallaby species in Australia. These herbivores, with thick coarse, grey-brown fur, rounded fluffy ears and short hind legs, measure about 40-54cm (15-21 in) and weigh about 2,7 to 4.2kg (5.95 to 9.25lbs). They are mainly resident in the island of Rottnest, 30km across from Perth and they are very curious and friendly.

  5. So realistic- you could 'swear' that was the actual streetscape - a road running along the beach front Loved what loves like surfer's dogs waiting patiently for their owners to come back in
