Another mural from the inner city suburb of Subiaco, painted in November 2017 by Hayley Welsh, with her trademark whimsical characters. 

It can be found in a laneway next to 144 Rokeby Street, Subiaco, entitled "Become what you dream to be". 

Hayley works as a full time artist and has studios in Perth and in her native town of Blackburn in the UK, where she has also painted murals.

I'm having lots of trouble uploading photos from the "Insert image icon" 
to my blog posts since Sunday.... I've tried many things and I've landed up sending photos to desktop and then moving them to the blog post.

But...sometimes it works, other times it doesn't!  Frustrating and time consuming!

Is anyone else having trouble?

Another mural from the inner city suburb of Subiaco, in the Rowland street carpark.

It was commissioned by the Subiaco Church of Christ, painted by artist Bee Tan and community volunteers,  and was inspired by the Biblical "Parable of the Seed", featuring silhouettes of local residents around the giant Boab tree and painted in June 2012.

Not sure it has anything to do with carpets, but I liked this quote I saw outside a carpet shop.

This is one of the murals I photographed in July, when we visited friends that were renovating an investment property in Subiaco.

Painted in 2016  by Perth artist Melski McVee in a laneway off Rokeby Street, on the side wall of Perth's Cat Cafe.

The 9mt high mural called "Subiaco was build on a Sunday" portrays Subiaco's rich retail history and the name refers to the fact that in the early 20th century, a local company developed kit homes which allowed land owners to build their own houses. Since most men worked , which refers to the fact that men in the area worked from Monday to Saturday, building would usually take place on Sundays.
