RE: The Old Dog Asks: Did One Artist Really Beautify an Entire Town?
This is wonderful-- thanks for sharing it!
Not only are the murals charming and whimsical... but I really like the fact that the town is so open to letting the artist put his mark on all these public spaces. So often towns get too tied down with "small politics" to appreciate the benefits of the end outcome (you know "well if HE gets to do that, my cousin's son who paints should ALSO get to do that, or I will vote against it!" state of mind).
Thanks so much @denmarkguy. Your right about the small politics. It seems that his paintings have caught on as being fashionable in that town. I will be making more visits to uncover some more treasures as it's actually only about 20 minutes away from where I live.
Very nice-- look forward to the next!
