Phoenix Graffiti Art

Today I have photos! Lots of photos of graffiti/wall murals in the downtown Phoenix area. For my locals who are curious, these photos were taken near Roosevelt between 2nd and 8th Streets. It's so cool to drive (or walk) around in this part of town. It seems like every time you turn a corner there's a different painting to admire. Check it out...

 

 

My favorite painting of the day was this wall of sunflowers, and I even really love the contrast of the fence in front of it.

And I was pleasantly surprised to come across this - two young men giving this abandoned building a little facelift. Look closely and you'll see a man in a red shirt on the top ledge, and also two little boys in the lower left picking up trash. I love that this is a community project that serves to create a more pleasant view for the residents there.

 

Aren't these fantastic? These works of art are regularly changed up from time to time and were new to me since the last time I walked around this part of town.

 

I wonder, do you have anything like this near your home?
