    A local business has this mural painted on their old building. I just love it. Hubby took this photo a few days ago.

    I wonder how people think of things like that. I guess I must not be artistic. I do like it though. Dooley

    I love it - wouldn't it be wonderful to have tree murals on buildings all over a city? I love the way they used the natural color of the brick to make the color of the trunk.

    That's a sight to behold. I agree that this type of mural painting should take place more in urban areas, it would really 'naturify' the surroundings :)

    By the ways there are some more amazing murals here: http://www.gardenstew.com/about479.html
