Eyes

In a nearby suburb in Greymouth I've been watching the reconstruction of this house and last week I saw that someone had painted a very spacey mural on the outside.



 Personally I really like it - it's kind of weird. What do you think?

Linking up with Mural Monday.

I do like it but wonder what it's all about . A crying eye? Any mural that brightens the neighbourhood is great. Is that a private house?

Yes. The crying eye puzzled me too.

The eye takes in the world around on the moment and is not to happy about it.

I like it, I don't understand but I still like it.

It certainly "stands out" - but perhaps they're not done with the renovation yet?

I wouldn't do it myself but I love it. One of my very 'off the wall' cousins lives in Invercargill and in his worst non-conformist years painted the weather boards of his house in rainbow stripes. (And he kept kuni kuni pigs in his backyard - the neighbours must have despaired).

How odd. I think it would grow on you. It's weirdly cheery - I guess the colours. THere's a building near us painted in rainbow flag - I actually don't know if it is the rainbow flag but in the marriage equality pllebiscite they wrote a big YES on the front of the building so now I think it's the rainbow flag....Anyway, it's sort of my favourite house to walk past now because it's so cheery in a grey street! #MuralMondays

It’s a pleasing composition, so why should it have to mean something?

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Family

  Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.  This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally?  I actually th...

Hail

  Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck.  Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too.
