Endangered Species Mural Project.

[Catherine]

The Center for Biological Diversity has started something called the Endangered Species Mural Project. The murals are being done to celebrate local endangered species. They are beautiful murals that serve to highlight conservation and the environment in connection with local species at risk. The main artist, Roger Peet sends a strong message about various species. Roger and other artists have created a volume of work in various communities. You have to see the pictures.

Wall art is a unique art form. It is bold and eye catching. These murals will have impact on the communities where they were created.

This is the 18th instalment of the project. It is as bold and beautiful as the first and it will reach people. It is a well thought out campaign and I hope we learn about many more installments in the future.

Aren't they beautiful. It's a shame though that we can only have these things in these concrete jungles as painted art.

In Australia we have artists who create murals on silos. They are absolutely stunning. I'm biased and I love the ones with the birds and animals

The murals on silos are incredible. They create beauty out of something stark.  For those of us in the cities the murals on concrete make life more beautiful. They are even putting murals in the back alleys.

Many businesses want murals on the side of their  stores. It creates beauty were none existed before and it gives us a taste of nature.
