Monday Murals - At the Montessori School

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.


On the 5th of February we attended a 3rd birthday party at a park next to the Swan River, near the Burswood Casino, and on the way there I spotted this mural, so of course Jose stopped so I could take photos :)

IT was painted on the 1st of April 2022, on the walls of Perth Montessori School at 150 Burswood Road, Burswood, by Perth artist Melski with "guests" who popped in to help with the finishing touches.

The artist's work reflects cultural and historical elements of the locations in which she paints, celebrating what is quintessentially Australian.

    That is a beautiful building. I especially like the bird. I wish all schools were modeled on the Montessori school program.
