Lois Lane..



We set off on Saturday in search of a specific mural in Mt. Lawley, a 'hip' inner city suburb with an abundance of old and new street art.The mural I was after is as fresh as last week-end, painted during the Beaufort Street Festival's Laneway Project which unfortunately I missed.. two places at one time.. still impossible :) To cut a long story short, I searched, couldn't find.. will return with better directions!


After a seriously good coffee at The Flying Scotsman.. was heading back to the car when I spotted this piece in Lois Lane on the wall of Daily Planet. A collaboration back in June 2012 between Beastman, Numskull and Kyle Hughes-Odgers see more Beastman collaborations around Australia and beyond here. It's a really cool piece of work adorning an otherwise very long, very grey wall :) Hope you had/are still having a good weekend, happy Monday, take care and stay safe..

  1. My wife, Lois, will be glad to know there is a lane named after her in Perth and I shall so inform her shortly. Love that long mural with the big foot. Lots of great color. I see you also paint your streets. Fun place where you live!

  6. Oh my, I think I want to emigrate to Perth - in your winter that is. I'd be dead and buried after about a week of summer! :-) Excellent Grace, I particularly love the two first shots!

  18. Actually, the part I like the best is the steampunk faux caryatid in the first photo.

  19. Lois Lane! Now, that is clever. Still not a fan of this stuff.

  20. That is really amazing, I love it.

  21. Wow, Superman's girlfriend in a work of art. I love it.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Now that is my kind of street art. I love the colors and all the geometric designs . Fantastic. I also love the name of the lane. Is there a Superman street close by?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Was going to mention Super Man but everyone has beaten me to it! Stay cool.

  24. I wonder how many Lois Lanes there are around the world? There's at least one other - in Adelaide! Greetings after a LONG break from visiting blogs - I'm back making up for lost time now!

  25. I am glad I am not to only one who couldn't find any information about the mural :) We have a music duo of two ladies here with the name "Lois Lane".

  28. Thats a lot of mural to stew but a nice one. Thanks for showing.

    ReplyDelete
  29. There is a street named Lois Lane here too!

    ReplyDelete
  30. A colourful street, Grace, that's good :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. I love the colours - it definitely makes a long grey wall look way more interesting!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Perry White Road?
    Jimmy Olson Drive?
    Superman Blvd?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Wow, that's extensive! Fun to see.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Love all the great color. And someone has a good sense of humor with the street name. :)

    ReplyDelete
  35. This is huge!! Lots to engage the eye and sense of humor. With that land name I half expected a nod to Superman. Too obvious I guess. Thanks, Grace, for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
