Our World on a Wall

OK, Prescott College, I give up! I know, the only fence on the campus suitable for a mural faces due south -- directly into the sun. I've taken several sets of pictures and I'm tired of waiting for a proper overcast day that might allow for better lighting! So here goes, starting at the alley, just across from the Crossroads Center. First, the authors and the Monarch butterflies (which I don't see that often around Prescott.)

On the other hand, PC is involved in environmental projects in Mexico, where the butterflies winter, so the selection is legitimate. A bathtub and a summer storm to fill it full.
Prescott's Official Bug -- the cicada about to fly into a sahuaro as clouds gather for that summer storm.

Sights from the Sea of Cortez, a couple of barrel cacti and further reminder of the importance of water.

Not sure whether the forest flowers are 1) mariposa lilies or 2) sacred datura; inclined to go with #1, though the actual blossoms look more like #2. The pottery lets us know that the Hopi mesas are not too far away.

The east end. Has to be the northern ocean: a whale, glaciers and snow flakes! Plus all-important power lines.

There you have it -- another Prescott mural; to see others, click on the link below. And I'm not done! The new revamped library features a small indoor mural; at the high school are a series of mural-type windows, and, of course, local artists are still working on the big production downtown on the wall facing the parking garage. Stay tuned.
