I am a fan of murals and public art. Or should I say most public art....I'm looking at you 'Travelling Light', aka the Big Blue Ring in Calgary. Art is definitely subjective and sometimes divisive but always something to appreciate.
Anyway, in the City of Red Deer, there are several sides and backs of buildings in and near the downtown core that have been transformed! I think it is such a great addition to the area and makes lurking in alleys extra fun and not at all suspicious.
Fitting mural for the Food Bank building. |
Stay tuned for Part 2! More murals!!! Want more now? Check out these murals from all over the world!
...WOW, you are a mural destination!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty great! There was a project the last 2 years with local artists to complete these.
DeleteThese are pretty special! Love them!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a good choice by the powers that be to have a mural project!
DeleteI love murals too and these are some great ones! Too bad they had to put the dumpster in front of the one with the birds.
ReplyDeleteThat one is one of my faves, I even tried to move the dumpster haha! It's always there too, I've checked!
DeleteWow, those are pretty impressive and beautiful murals.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill, I am glad someone in charge had the vision for this!
DeleteHey, if this is Red deer , I've only seen four of these but have many photos of other murals. I'm going to have to get out more often.
ReplyDeleteHi Red, yes these are all in Red Deer. Worth a walk around for sure!
DeleteWow, so many amazing murals. The one with the butterflies might be my favourite :) Thanks for joining Monday Murals Jenn.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWow - these are fabulous. I actually recognize a couple of the artists. You will have to show us more.
ReplyDeleteI should've included the artists names, I think I will go back and do that. Very cool that you recognize some!
DeleteLots of beautiful murals...especially the butterflies. (I like the Blue Ring too!)
