Family Feast

 


Here's something cool I saw in Westport recently on the side of a utility box. Painted by artist Maureen Mayo it depicts Tui family feasting on flowers from the Harakeke (flax) plant. I'm loving the colours.

Linking up with Monday Murals.

I think it's a great idea to paint the utility boxes.

...this dresses up the utility box nicely.

Gives street utilities a complete nicer view. Wonderful.

Having artists decorate the utility boxes in cities all over the world is a fantastic global trend.

I always enjoy seeing a utility box nicely decorated as they can be such an eyesore. That one is particularly pretty. Love the colours.

A nice find. I love it when a utilitybox is painted!

The birds are beautiful and so is the colourful background. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Amy.

It's beautiful painted. I finally saw some utility boxes painted here this last weekend. I wondered when we would catch on.

I love the way that such things are treated as a canvas for art. Over here all dark green, orgrey.
