More Fountain Square Art

It's not just in the alleyway. There are new murals up on the Murphy Art building, the National City Bank drive-in, and evidently behind some other buildings (although I haven't seen them in person yet). Things seem to be going smoothly, although one muralist shared with me that if she ever paints another mural, she'll start from the top down. Many times did gravity conspire to share the blue of her sky with the landscape below. She did seem to be remarkably quick with the paint thinner and sponges, though.

We also got a show while we were observing the artist at work - one of our neighbors managed to turn a random exchange with a wandering drunk into a full-blown shouting match, complete with his roommates massing for a possible frontal assault. I'd give the edge to the neighbor over the drunk in sanity, but he'd just spent five minutes talking about getting both his dead dog and the statuary in Fountain Square memorialized in ink on his chest and back. I like where I live, and my dog is swell. They're not getting tatoos, though. That guy's crazy.
