They are fabulous. I need that elephant in my front yard. You look fantastic!

Oh my, checked pants (and so much more!)

It certainly lifts the soul!

What fun photos! And what a fun place to spend the cold months!

You look great!

Wonderful pics! My town has hired a talented team to do murals on the sides of old buildings, everyone is loving them.

You look fab!

ETA: Friday, I’ll bet you could do something like this. It reminds me of you:

How about a mini metal elephant for your yard? :D

Etsy Cutie

Sue, somehow I missed the pic of the flamingo your DH took … I’d print that out and frame it or put it on a canvas!

So fun!

Cute; is it an arts districut where you are?

Mtn, most of these murals were in the grand central district in St Petersburg.

We are about 1/2 hour away.

The pic Jilly reposted was amazing and huge.

These are great! You have such a good eye!

Love them So cheerful. You’re so cute.

Philadelphia has lots of murals and you can take a mural tour, something I plan to do some day.

Beautiful murals! And you look smashing too!😁 sounds like your having fun in Florida

Jilly, love that mural.

Gorgeous pics of amazing art and animals! I felt warmer just viewing them, as I watch the first snow of the season falling outside my window! Geez, it's MARCH!

Beautiful photos. Love all the color, looks so happy

Gorgeous photos, Sue. I love all of the color.

Wonderful!

Lovely photos 🙂

FWIW, St. Pete has a festival every year called Shine, where artists paint new murals, so there are many now. A number are gone too, since they aren't meant to be totally permanent, unfortunately - and they're not all in the Grand Central district either. You can find others scattered across town too...

P.S. That flamingo is superb - could win a prize I think.

Beautiful!!! Love the poodle too. lol!

Love these, Sueb! I love murals in general and love to see old buildings painted with them. Our city has several now thanks to many talented artists who have been willing to paint them. These have really brightened my day.

Flamingoes always held a fascination with me. Just a superb photo by your DH.

More…not murals but just colorful.

This is chalk!

And some of the cyanotypes I made, had to take advantage of our sunny patio!

Gorgeous photos, love the plants sign, and your cyanotypes are bold and fantastic!!! In this valley, we don't get enough sun in a month to achieve anything like that. lol!

Have you considered framing several or more of these cyanotypes to use in your re-decorated sitting room?

Lisa, thanks…these are all small, like postcard size. But I do have a few framed ones scattered around that could be grouped, maybe.

DH is going to move the chairs out within the next few days. I am weirdly looking forward to giving the room a good cleaning before the new furniture arrives.

Love all of the colorful photos - thanks for sharing!

Love it— the entire funny vignette! maybe the checkered poodle could be the poster boy just for April Fool’s.
