I had NOT been to ‘Meredith‘ since July 4th. That is my loss. I lived in Meredith for nearly 3 years & then used to go there ALL the time. But, in the last 5 years or so I would be lucky if I visit 5 times in the year. MY LOSS. I really must make an effort to visit. I am sure this mural wasn’t there when I visited on July 4th. It would have stopped me in my tracks.
I saw it for the first time yesterday. It BLEW ME AWAY. It is brilliant. Colorful, vibrant & symbolic. So magically & marvelously captures THE MAGIC of Meredith.
Bravo. Kudos.
I think (but I can’t be sure) that I have heard of this ‘Veggie Art Girl‘.
I am now humbled by her talents. I need to get to know her work. I have a CRAZY idea to ask her (more like BEG) IF she could do a piece for one of my books. She probably is (as she should be) way too busy & most likely WAY OUTSIDE my meagre budget. C’est la vie. This is great. I love art. This was so refreshing & inspiring. I want to SHOUT about is brilliance from the roofs. But, alas, this is the best I can do.
Try & visit Meredith just to see this mural.
[Then TREAT yourself to some calamari, spinach rolls & pizza at “Giuseppe’s” — THE BEST PIZZERIA IN THE U.S. — which is just around the corner. That is how I ended up walking past this wonderful mural. I was going to Giuseppe’s. Most of the time I go to Meredith is to visit Giuseppe’s. SMILE. [I don’t eat the pizza BUT I eat TONS of the calamari + spinach rolls.]
