Street Art & Murals
Apr 20, 2018 07:58:22 #
Since moving to Guam, I've noticed that they have quite a few murals around the island. Some of them are quite impressive and intricate. It reminded me of a few photos I've taken from various places of different murals and street art. Personally I'm a fan of most of these. If done right, I think they can really spruce up an otherwise boring building or location. Feel free to add any that you've seen or liked in the comments or another post.
Guam Carabao. Agana, Guam. Interestingly enough, the first time I came to Guam, I saw a man walking his carabao while his dog rode on the carabao's back.

Local city mural. Piti, Guam. Featuring the Guam rail and a carabao.

Dragon Waves Mural. Yokosuka, Japan. This was taken years ago with my Nikon Coolpix. I had to stitch two pictures together to get it all. As you can see it messed up a little on the tile and the sign.

People of Seattle. Seattle, Washington.
Mural in Progress. San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Here's what it looks like now. (I screenshot this image from Google Maps. Not one of my pictures)
Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. This one is debatable if this is art or graffiti. Either way, I liked how the sun and shadows looked.

Great photos. I class murals with folk art which is a favorite of mine. The amount of work which goes into them is unbelievable. They are a favorite along with railroad car art. Thank you for posting them. You started my my day and weekend off on a happy note.
