mural pics




I am currently working on a mural at 47th and baltimore Ave in philadelphia. It is really two murals that face each other across a parking lot. The mural is a kind of composite representation of the neighborhood. the center of the first wall is a large group of people from the neighborhood in front of the 1980's era murals that used to be on these walls. I have painted over them with permission from the original artist. Out of respect for the old murals and their place in the psyche of the nieghborhood, I have included them in my mural. surrounding the central scene are 4 vignettes of architecture in the immediate vicinity.

Thanks for posting the pics.
I love architectural vignettes.
The dog looks like Paulette-- except she never wears a leash.
Damn, Dave, you're so good at these murals!
