Although I am in Houston working on the preservation and restoration of this wonderful mural by Dr. John Biggers in 1953, damaged by Hurricane Harvey, I've posted about this art district of murals with some very nice images though nothing really blew me away like I saw in Porto, Portugal or that I’m used to seeing in Los Angeles (video on YouTube Channel playlist).
I love the type of emotional involvement, intellectual stimulation that I experience and my connection with contemporary artists of murals in public places.
Part of that intellectual stimulation is seeing the difference between fast food art, vandalism and true masterpieces in public places.
