ART
Anna must have read my mind when she picked this month's prompt because it ties in perfectly with my focus on Prince this month. He was a wonderful musician and his music definitely is a work of art. I almost featured some of my favorite album covers but instead decided to share some of the wonderful murals people have painted in his honor.
This one is currently in bloom. The painting was done by Christine Stein on a rock formation and over the past two years, the blooms behind it have grown to this. It's located in California.
This one is located in Minnesota and was painted by artist Joe Pagac a month after Prince passed. I think it's probably my favorite because it's his iconic Purple Rain look.
This one is in his hometown.
This one was painted by famous muralist, Rick Martinez and was shown in the Weisman Art Museum.
This is a street mural in New York.
I hope you enjoyed seeing some of my favorites and I want to thank the many talented people who have taken the time to honor Prince in their own ways.
I love those flowers blooming around the painting-it looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteI know, I think it's my favorite.
DeleteOh wow. That first one is pretty amazing!
ReplyDeleteSo cool how they worked the art and nature together huh?
DeleteWhat lovely tributes - that first one is so inspired!
ReplyDeleteI agree.
DeleteThese are beautiful, I love street art and I wish I had more time to get out and about and discover it.
ReplyDeleteStreet artists are often so talented. And it's such a cool way to express oneself and turn something into beauty.
DeleteThanks for sharing the fabulous murals.

DeleteOoh nice...
ReplyDeleteWow, these are beautiful! And the one with the flowers is such a creative idea!
ReplyDeleteCool theme. Amazing bloom!
ReplyDeleteThose are really cool. Enjoyed your blog.
ReplyDeleteI love the street murals, especially the one of Prince on his iconic motorcycle and the last one where it looks like it's raining purple. It's very strange knowing that Prince is no longer here with us, same thing for Glen Fry and George Michael.
