PPAC #68: Bright Public Art

LAST WEEK’S FABULOUS BLOGGERS

With all the other challenges, even public and street art, I thank all the bloggers who participate in the Photographing Public Art Challenge. Please honor these bloggers with your visits this week.

MAMA CORMIER – GARDEN ART IN A COMMUNITY GARDEN
NOW AT HOME – ZIMBABWE STATUES AND AFRICAN AND NEW ZEALAND METAL SCULPTURES
PICTURES IMPERFECT – ABSTRACT ART IN BRIGHT COLORS
PHOTOGRAPHIAS – A HANDY HANDSOME MURAL
SECOND WIND LEISURE – FLEETING MOMENTS
TRAVEL WITH ME – PICTURESQUE STATUES IN SOFIA
WOOLLY MUSES – CREEK ART

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!

My Choices for PPAC #68

Here are three more pictures from my trip to the Pacific Northwest to meet up with bloggers. These are some of my favorites because of the colors. 🙂

I like to turn my brightest and best digital photos into digital puzzles. I just finished this one. Three hundred pieces snapped together in less than 2 hours on my small computer screen. The brighter colors make the puzzle easier, but the random patterns make it harder.

This is another mural that made a great puzzle. There are so many interesting lines, colors, and shadows. We found this one in downtown Vancouver, Washington.

This is the last bright piece of public art I have for you today. It works for Thursday Trios if you count the windows in the main scene.

In November 2020, we sold everything and retired to the mile-high desert of Prescott, AZ.
