Monday Murals - Watch Out

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. 


Another mural at Old Doha Port, painted as part of the "World Wide Walls International Mural Festival", hosted by Qatar Museums in Nov/Dec 2023.
Titled "Watch Out" by mc_ hood, an Omani artist, whose mural focus on the significance of legalising graffiti to enhance public spaces and as a form of freedom of expression.

PS: Sorry to interrupt Monday Murals again, but I'll be going to Portugal on the 26th February for 3 weeks for a family reunion to celebrate my daughter Karina's 40th birthday on the 8th March, as well as my birthday 2nd, my great-niece's 5th and my dad's birthday 11th March - with a big party on the 8th of March!

So next week 24th I'll still post a mural, but no murals on the 3rd, 10th or 17th March and I'll return with Monday Murals on 24th March. I'm sure I'll bring you some great murals from Portugal :)

Here's a 6 min video from Youtube by mural artist "Herzven" about the murals painted at the Old Port Doha. He painted the mural "Co-existence" that I posted on the 3rd February - from this video I noticed that I missed 2 big murals. Hopefully there will be another visit to Qatar in the next 3 or 4 years while Karina and Thomas are living there.

  21. How fabulous, your planned trip to Portugal. Enjoy. If Clarence Bekker is playing, go and see him. He often performs there, when not in Spain.
