These are so bright and cheery! I just love street art! Our city has quite a bit of beautiful art on the sides of buildings downtown, and they just opened Art Alley, where the art is actually on the street itself. Thanks for making me smile today with your lovely photos!

VJ, I like what Terri said. This is one reason I like Resa’s blog so much, as she finds wall art in Toronto to share. This dresses up even the smallest of towns. Top of mind, there is a little mountain town near us called West Jefferson, NC that has wonderful wall art. Keith
