These paintings decorate the side of a parking garage on the corner of Bank and Grand streets in Waterbury, Connecticut. The panels are a beautiful splash of color in a city that struggles against being run-down and weary.

Those murals are a definite improvement over a blank concrete wall. They are very colorful and pretty.
ReplyDeleteGreat eyes, colorful painting.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, huge, eyes!
ReplyDeleteI love murals. Those are unique! Great colors.
ReplyDeleteThe colors are very eye catching! BUT those eyes looking back . . . I will have to think about that. . .

ReplyDeleteWhat a marvelous, colorful way to brighten up not just the parking garage, but the whole surrounding area! Beautiful eyes! Terrific shots, Sandy! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!

Send those artists down here! Wake County just built a 9-level new parking deck downtown and the blank institutional gray of the concrete could definitely use a bit of sprucing up.
ReplyDeleteAnd apparently the city has money for such things. (Witness my MWT this week for -- more -- evidence!) After all we can't very well have visitors to our Disco Alfresco District parking in a dull county garage can we? That would never do!
What a cheerful way to nicen up a corner ... and I love the way you shot it ..
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and colorful world..Great photos like always. Have a good 2010!

I like how the eyes appear to peering back at us through the trees.
ReplyDeleteI like murals on outside walls. They add warmth to a community.
Very impressive works it is interesting how a painting can be so large and have such clean lines. It has a great look for being an outdoor painting.
ReplyDeleteI like the way that you shot the picture with some branches over the painting it really adds to the photo.
Thanks for sharing

Neat photos 0 I like the mural behind the trees!
ReplyDelete...see what is in front of my house!
I like the photos shot through the bare trees like that. When the trees are full of leaves, you probably can't see the mural from where you were. Great colors. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteBig eyes are watching. You captured them well!
ReplyDeleteit's very colorful =)
ReplyDeleteOh that makes for a colourful sight! It looks great like that behind the bare trees.
ReplyDeleteSandy: That is very cool art.
ReplyDeleteThese colors are cheerful especially this time of year.
ReplyDeleteWonderful colorful paintings. I really like art like this on buildings and this has such an original feel.
ReplyDeleteSandy, Love the top one of dark branches against the coloured background. And the eyes!
ReplyDeleteA great capture!
Pretty colors. I can only try to imagine the vision those eyes are seeing. Happy holidays!
