A right royal facelift.....!
Standing at the Wellington St. entrance to Prince Lane, the mural titled 'Lost Giants' by renowned artist Stormie Mills seems to have acquired a princely crown since I last saw him! The laneway which runs from Wellington through to Murray St. has had a colourful facelift in preparation for it's forthcoming role as one of the thoroughfares from Northbridge into the city when the Perth City Link Project is completed mid 2014. Running parallel with King St., the interweaving paper dress making patterns and design murals by WA artists Clare McFarlane, Denise Brown, Stephen Genovese, Jae Criddle, Paul Caporn and Leanne Bray depict the strong connection to the fashion industry. It's a long lane so the addition of new lighting and security cameras are a definite plus on the safety side. I couldn't swear to the safety of my sanity these days, but most people wouldn't notice a difference :)) TGIF hope it's a good one, take care.....

ReplyDeleteWhat a colourful part of town.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes!! I love the colorful facelift!! And I do understand questionable sanity -- I've been experiencing some of that too in spite of the fun of the wedding, kids visiting etc etc etc!! Hope you have a great weekend, Grace!!!
ReplyDeleteI think I see a pattern emerging. :-)
ReplyDeleteHmmm looks like some space left on that green wall for at least one more change of outfit....

Hmmmm. Within its genre, it is pretty nice. I am just not a fan of these kinds of things.
ReplyDeleteLooking very princely indeed, haha, nice touch with the crown! This would be a fun alley to walk through, those colors are so bright and cheery:)
ReplyDeleteI like murals because they brighten up the areas.

ReplyDeleteThat's quite brilliant but what's going down this lane, a tram?

ReplyDeleteLove these! Thank you Grace.
ReplyDeleteThe sidewalks are narrow. This looks like it would be a good street to be a pedestrian-only shopping arcade.
ReplyDeleteI love the fashion mural!
