Monday Murals - The Wings

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 

The Wings - another mural in Cowaramup (south west of Western Australia), located on the wall of the Cowaramup Agencies building - Agriculture Supplies and Services - on the corner of Bussell Highway and Hall Road (just around the corner from Moon Haven and the previous mural).

Originally painted in 2018, by Anita Revel, it was spruced up in 2022 and a purple background added in honour of the Cowara or Purple-crowned Lorikeet, which gives Cowaramup its name.

Anita is an author, an artist and in 2019 was voted the best marriage celebrant in our state of Western Australia. Talented lady!



In front of the wings. I should have spread my arms to the wings:) and I'm a bit off-centre as well, but that's the photographer's fault, lol.

  3. Those wing murals for people who want to pose as an angel have been quite a fad here. It’s hard to remember to pose with one’s arms spread! Your example is an especially huge one!
    THanks for hosting.

  6. Haha, that's right dear Sami - one step to the side and you would have looked like an angel ;-) But you do anyway! The wing mural is very beautiful - with the purple addition it is even more magnificent than before.
    All the best, have a pleasant Sunday and a good start to the new week, Traude

  18. The purple background really gives it a lift. The original does seem to be painted more sharply that the redo though.
