PPAC #44: What Do Big Cats in a Scottsdale Shopping Center Eat?

FEATURED BLOGGERS

Last week for PPAC #43, I had fun responses from all of you. Thank you to all the bloggers who participated this week. Please honor them with your visits this week.

IT’S EASY TO PLAY ALONG WITH #PPAC

  • There is no weekly theme even though my post has a theme with murals, statues, fountains, scrap art, graffiti, store windows, seasonal displays, car or art shows, artistic construction, or even artistic neighborhood decor. Photograph the public art that is available to you.
  • Art should be freely visible from a public street, freeway, or walkway or inside a publicly accessed building like a library. If you pay, it’s not public.
  • Photographers should have free access of use for their photos – no copyrights by the artists.
  • The challenge starts every Friday at 9:00 a.m. Phoenix Time and it ends on Thursday at noon.
  • Write a post on your blog, publish it, and include a link back to my weekly post not my page preferably in a comment. Sometimes pingbacks are missed. See how to create pingbacks here. 
  • Take time to visit other PPAC participants throughout the week. I recommend visiting at least two or three other participants in the community and leaving them a comment.
  • Have fun! Art is to be enjoyed!

For More Ideas about PPAC…

These early-bird participants might give you some great ideas about something you’ve never thought about as public art or how to photograph it.

My Choices for PPAC #44 Big Cats

Maybe they eat people like vampire cats. Maybe the way to keep them from eating you is that you give them the look that turns them to stone.

Wonder what’s good to eat at the mall…
Perfect weather
Something smells good
Shady places to lie and rest after a good meal
Who are you looking at?
Hey, comee over here for a sec.
I’m busy.
That means go away.
Play time
Wanna swim?

Other Challenges that Inspired PPAC this week.

  • Cell Pic Sunday – all pictures were taken with my iPhone 12s and modified slightly in Bridge.
  • WWE #121
  • CFFC Wood Lots of trees for the big cats

Now it’s your turn.

What’s your PPAC theme this week? Are you into statues or sculptures (and what’s the difference anyway?) Did you find some cool murals? Did you go on a trip or a walk around your hometown and grab a bunch of different kinds of public art? I can’t wait to see it.

  10. These are excellent! I love it that you took photos from all angles. And I love it that you include all the links from previous week in your post. It makes it easier to manueure (can’t spell!).

    In my post there is a poem for my friends’ daughter whose birthday it is, and all the art from Florence that I could find in photos from my last visit eight years ago. Welcome!

    • You could have a lot of fun with your sketch pad, Lin. I found a place in Williams, AZ where they must sell wild animal statues, so I imagine you can find them all over at nurseries or other places. I have to admit, I haven’t seen them this big, though! I was thrilled to run into them. 🙂

    • That will be amazing. You live in the few places where you could actually go somewhere on the continent and see them in person. 🙂 I hope you post lots of pictures. 🙂
