Fabulous street art is around every corner in Mt. Lawley / Highgate, inner city suburbs of Perth.. with more added each year during the Beaufort Street Festival. The Guardian of Highgate by Perth artist Drew Straker is without doubt one of the most eye-catching, even more so with the addition of a 'cobblestone meets disco ball' pattern on the laneway pavement. This commissioned piece is on the wall of St. Michael 6003 Restaurant on Beaufort Street. I hope you had or are still having a quieter weekend than I :). Happy Monday, take care and stay safe...p.s. if you follow the Australian political scene.. interesting day for us today!
A strong and colored guardian! Arianna
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colours and shapes here. I love these types of designs on streets. - Tasha
ReplyDeleteI do love the colors -- everywhere!! So different from anything even remotely similar to what I've seen here in the states. What fun just to walk up and down the streets!! You have gotten some really great shots!!
ReplyDeleteI rather like the colorful stones
ReplyDeleteWell done and very colorful!
ReplyDeleteRight, that's my dead favourite so far. P'raps because I love stained glass and the Middle-Ages?
ReplyDeleteShapes and colors are wonderful ...
ReplyDeleteWhy, your politics are just as upsetting and messed up as ours! Love your angel, and the angel YOU are. We shall overcome all this nonsense. . . . SOME day!

BEAUTIFUL PLACE
ReplyDeleteVery nice art in a colorful place.
ReplyDeleteGrace, je suis étonnée qu'à Perth vous avez cet amour du street art. Chez nous ce n'est pas aussi simple mais ça commence :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautifully decorated laneway!
ReplyDeleteI like this one a lot, Grace!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful piece of art! Love the colors!
ReplyDeleteLove these!
ReplyDeleteThis is excellent, Grace, the kind of street art that I like.
ReplyDeleteThat is just so much fun.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness we have you to brighten the day - politics is sooo grey & depressing!
ReplyDeleteSt. Michael has known challenges but never before, I think, a tank. The pavement is brilliant.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I heard about your PM. Sheesh. And why is your conservative party called the Liberal Party?
The interesting day turned out to be not so interesting. I don't know if you are familiar with the White Angel blog, whose owner lives in Tasmania, but it well worth having a look at her post showing Sheffield murals. They aren't like inner suburban works, but very good. http://whiteangels-thoughts.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/sheffield-tasmania.html
ReplyDeleteLove this colorful street.
ReplyDeleteheel mooi dit is echt niet storend maar zelfs mooi.
ReplyDeleteIncredibly colourful Grace - I love it. Colourful is also a word we can use to describe your politics in recent turbulent times. But not today... business as usual I see.
ReplyDeleteWow. I love the subject matter, the colour and the awesomeness of this mural Grace.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a happenin' place! Great mural find.
ReplyDeleteWhat a special way to make a mural, very nice and also a "pavement mural" added to it.
ReplyDeleteI love all the bright colours!
ReplyDeleteSo much wonderful color!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the guardian! Such bright colors meet you on this street.
ReplyDeleteA lovely guardian, Grace !
ReplyDeletevery colorful and fun! and the guardian looks very kind!
ReplyDeleteLove the rainbow colored pavement!
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to live in such a colourful city, Grace! (In spite of the high summer temperatures!)
ReplyDeleteIt's always interesting to know what's going on in Australia. Our Canadian Prime Minister seems to think a lot of T. Abbott. :)
I love street art! It doesn't take itself too seriously.
ReplyDeletePerth has amazingly interesting activities and areas too explore.
ReplyDeleteI think this is the first mural we've had that looks like stained glass. Quite a bold statement. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteI guess you never get bored in Perth!
