FITZROY ALLEY ART

This little alley in Fitzroy lies parallel to Brunswick St and is directly off Princes St. One could quite easily miss it, however, unless one is walking. There is a huge variety of graffiti, nasty and ugly tagging, and occasionally some really nice art. I was quite impressed with the "Green Goddess". It seems to have been painted over another piece of art, which unfortunately I did not see. Such is the lot of street art, evanescent and ephemeral...

This post is part of the Monday Murals meme,
and also part of the Blue Monday meme,
and also part of the Friday Greens meme.

    Even the cobblestones reflect the blues. What a treasure of an alleyway you found.

    Hi Nick,

    Interesting . . . yes, but I wonder how much money is spent on all of this paint and WHO provided it? (I bet not the painters.) Thanks for making Blue Monday special.

    Happy Blue Monday!

    FABULOUS ART! I saw similarly impressive street art when I was in Rio this past winter.

    I hate grafitti! But the green lady was a mural, and her I enjoyed!

    Yep, I'd stop too in front of this piece. Even her heart seems to be a wild animal. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
