Back in 2016, a new/replacement mural was created to become the gateway to downtown Jasper. Orange…read moreMoon Art Studio was selected to design the new piece which faces west. Artist Michael Smith was hired to paint the new mural that continued the theme of strong German heritage in developing the area. The mural has many images including the flags for the Sister Cities, the courthouse, the Jasper City Mill, The Jasper Depot, furniture manufacturing, and logging. At the top, the mural reads: Jasper Born from Rich Soil. A banner across the bottom reads: Built on strong work ethic and entrepreneurship. The mural is still in good condition and filled with bright colors. The only negative I've uncovered is that there has been some feedback that no women are portrayed in the mural which is supposed to be inclusive of all that makes Jasper great. Review #3195

The six scenes are: the hookah smoking caterpillar; Alice holding her cat, with the Cheshire Cat in the background; the Queen of Hearts' frog servants; the Queen of Hearts; the Mad Hatter; and the White Rabbit. It's a beautiful mural and love the bright colors. It is probably my favourite mural in Louisville. [Yelp collections: Louisville/Indianapolis 2023; Louisville, KY 2023; Public Art]

The mural consist of a pair of boxing gloves with its angel halo (I assume created shortly after ali passing) and the left wing being a butterfly wing and the right wing being a bee wing. Very cool and unique. While the mural never mentions Ali name or the phrase or is obvious what the message is by the creative use of symbolism. Overall a great piece and while it's not very large and kinda hard to spot on the side of a building it may be one of my new favorite pieces because of the creativity.

Picture this: a red truck hauling a barrel of dreams through rolling green hills while a crew of curious tin giants and shaggy forest creatures just vibe on the sidelines.

The colors are vivid, the details are crisp, and the whole thing feels like a hidden scene from a Kentucky fairy tale. Whether you're a local or just stretching your legs on a road trip, this mural makes you stop, smile, and maybe wonder what's actually in that barrel... Absolutely worth the detour (and the Instagram post).

On my most recent trip to Bloomington, I headed out to the west side to find a large wind driven…read moresculpture behind the Bed Bath and Beyond store. Partially hidden by large evergreen trees on the west side of the green space is a sculpture that is nearly 70 feet in height made of coated steel that on sunny days, reflects deep colors off its surface. The piece is officially listed as "Untitled 2001" by artist Stephen Powell (2001) but is also referred to as "Fngers". The piece has two end pillars that support a crossbar. The cross bar has five tapered tubes that use their thicker and heavier bases to counter balance the long and narrow portion that reach skyward. As wind catches the long surfaces, the tubes pivot towards horizontal depending upon the wind velocity. On my visit, the wind was light, so the tubes were generally pointing skyward with litle movement. However, I have seen photos of the tubes frozen in winter parallel to the ground! At the time of my visit, there were no benches in the vicinity for visitors to sit and watch the movement though I can imagine that it may be peacefl to watch the tubes sway. I believe I've read the tubes make noise on windy days as well, but were silent on my trip. If you are in the area and the wind is cooperating, take a moment to swing by to check it out. There is plenty of parking to pull up and view the piece in motion. Review #1370

As you walk into the alley you will see the three murals side by side and a staircase. The first mural you will see is a "welcome to Evansville" mural. The second mural is the awesome and vibrant "neon lights" mural and lastly you have the cleverly named "Ready or Dot!" Mural. All there murals are fantastic and well done. They make for a perfect photo op or as the alley insists a perfect selfie. My personally favorite of the 3 current murals is the neon lights mural. It was my favorite mural I came across on my short trip to the city of Evansville. Overall very cool, fun and clever thing to have in the city. Me and the family always enjoy discovering public art when visiting towns. And self.e alley provided easy access to three really good murals.
