A few months ago Gillen's Supermarket commissioned a new mural for their side wall where the customers park. The artist is a very multi-talented local man, Brendan Farren, and the mural shows local scenes, Lough Foyle, the lighthouse and Cooley Cross. It a long one and tough getting it in one image due to cars being there off and on all day and night. The last photo is of the end. Previously I showed its predecessor back in February,

Love the way how the mural is going over the piping. Nice one.
ReplyDeleteThe mural spruces up the neighbourhood.
ReplyDeleteIt sure brightens up a boring wall.
ReplyDeleteHa Bill, weer een van die bijzondere muurschilderingen, inderdaad een getalenteerde kunstenaar. Mooie foto.
ReplyDeleteGroet Kees.
...a nice splash of color.
ReplyDeleteI like it very much!!
ReplyDeleteThe artist did a great job! So much better than a bare concrete wall!
ReplyDeleteI am pleased that so many cities around the world are using murals as street art to beautify the environment.
ReplyDelete'Tis a beautiful piece and a wonderful idea to incorporate scenes from the town and area into the mural. It also makes Gillens easy to find! I hope that storm is passing you by!
ReplyDeleteIt is a very pretty mural Bill! I'm seeing more murals here lately and I love it.
ReplyDeleteHi Bill.
ReplyDeleteNice done, is more cozy than a white or gray wall.
Groettie from Patricia.
Simple and nice, bill !
ReplyDeleteLove it! I hope all is well in your area ( with the storm).
ReplyDeleteNice mural. It's always hard to photograph long murals and there always seems to be cars around blocking the complete view.
ReplyDeleteThat mural is very nicely done with very pleasing colors. I hear on the news this morning that a big storm is headed your way. I hope you and your family are safe and sound.
ReplyDeleteVery colourful, and welcoming to the eyes.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see businesses putting attractive murals on the sides of their buildings. It is. A challenge to photograph some of them.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job showing us the whole thing, Bill!
ReplyDeleteI hope the weather isn't being too hard on you!
These are great murals. Eugene is trying to add murals around town, the City even brought in what they said were world-famous muralists, but I am not fond of most of them. I feel like the artists were trying too hard to be original. (Or else I'm just old and cranky -- a pretty fair possibility).
ReplyDeleteThis is such a pretty mural, Bill!
ReplyDeleteColourfully attractive mural!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see that Gillen's sees that wall as a place for community art. This is very different from its predecessor.
ReplyDeleteI hope you've survived Ophelia unscathed. It sounds like the southwest took a beating.
I like it's simplicity and colours Bill.. and it certainly improves the carpark space.
ReplyDeleteIt looks nice and colourful
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Very creative and talented artist. I love how once that mural started, it just kept on going until the end.
ReplyDeleteSpare yet effective. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
