This is an incredible new mural painted recently in my city by Australian artist Vexta. She gets a super hero name and travels the world painting stuff like this. How cool is that?

This is a brand new mural titled Bollywood Sugar that was just completed last week in Rochester, N.Y. by the Dutch artist HandieDan. This mural kicks off the annual Wall Therapy Festival my city has every year during which 15-20 artists from all over the world descend on our city for a few weeks and then leave it an infinitely more beautiful place.
Have a great Wednesday! ~Phil

I don’t know the story behind this one. I just turned a corner and there it was on the side of a building with a fox. Have a great Wednesday! ~Phil

I find this sculpture eerie because the head is suspened in air. Sadly it’s suspended by it’s own tears. I came across this in an office building and as I was taking a picture of it a woman who worked in the building came up to me and commented that she didn’t like it but was stuck seeing it every day outside her office.
Hopefully you have a cheerier day than the subject of this sculpture! ~Phil

I came across both of these at the same time because they’re on the same building, but separated by a Popeye cartoon mural. I was just driving in the city one day and came across them.
I don’t know the story behind these but I find them to be a very odd pairing. The portrait of the girl is startling good isn’t it?

Ironically my Wordless Wednesday is a picture of words.
I drive by this regularly. I find it very annoying because it seems like an accusation that I’m not doing what I should be. There’s alot of nice inspirational things painted around my city, but I don’t like this one. What do you think?
