Your local murals!!
 
I love murals. A recent post by Jim Moonan gave me the idea of sharing our local murals. Are there any that you love in your town?

Here are some from Greenville, SC and vicinity:

These are wonderful.
To a degree, murals such as these are the modern day equivalent to the frescos of the renaissance, I think. For every Michelangelo there must have been thousands of artists toiling away in obscure places painting ceilings walls, floors -- wherever there was wide open blank space.

There are some nice murals here in Boston that I'll try to photograph and put here. Thanks for the thread!
