DARts Public Art Index
n Deep Elm on another matter recently while daydraming about reviewing the series of sexy beer billboards I keep seeing along the highway to home, I suddenly realized I was in the very thick of creative wall painting, coverall graffiti, muraling and non-governmental public art. So I drove around and found these gems, new since last time I photographed around this territory.
Notice the fading sign above this mural. Nice that the new paint is appropriate to the old use. Clean, almost serene design of mechanical interconnectivity and colors from another era.
Filling the side of an otherwise staid commercial printer, this melange of undecipherable text. I can read Show and Prove, but what's the message of the rest of this wild visual?
Not a Pegaus or a unicorn, just one of three psyche-rellic white horses prancing down into the Good Latimer tunnel, subterranean gateway to Deepest Elm.
Too many of the pictures along the tunnel are sheer dreck. These two, however, have something going for them. Simplicity, enigmatic narratives, a mix of reality and surreality, interesting contrast of three and two-dimensionalities.
Painted since Nine Eleven? Father and son reunion along the sun-lit portion of the tunnel, while shopping goes on upstairs. 
Outside of Deep Elm proper, this wall is on what looks like a sculptor's studio across the street from the Latino Cultural Center under construction near downtown.
