Brown eyed girl...



Thanks for all the good wishes re my chopped finger tip yesterday.. slightly smaller dressing today making it easier to type. Not sure if my fingerprint will ever be the same :) apart from that it's all good. The exotic beauty above is part of a mural painted on the wall of the Joondalup Railway and Bus Station as part of the Public Transport Authority Urban Art Project.  The project, using a group of recognized Perth aerosol artists is 'a bid to tackle the multi-million dollar costs of cleaning up vandalism each year'. It seems to be working! Made up of many discombobulated images it was those brown hypnotic eyes that captured my lens. Hope your week is off to a good start, happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe...

  8. Glad to hear the finger is mending nicely. I love the brown-eyed girl. I especially like the feathers in her hat. She has a look of mystery about her.

  12. Ripped the end of my right index finger off with the chain of a riding mower. Doc said I'd be picking my nose again in no time. He lied. :-)

  15. The girl's eyes in the mural are quite haunting. I imagine that they seem to follow passers-by much like the Mona Lisa's. Great colours.
