The Flag & The Octopus

 Here are two more of the new murals in town. This one is on the firehouse wall.


I did not understand this octopus one at all, until I read about the meaning. The octopus is holding spray paint cans, and his paint is his octopus ink.

That's pretty good advice from an octopus. Both murals are great but I really love the first one.

Two great murals. I was told we have new murals here in corpus. Maybe I should find out where they are. I like the flag best...to me it still stands for freedom.

I.love the first and I think the octopus is well done, but just not my cup of tea.

i had to stare at the octopus for a while and figured out the gas mask, i assume it has some meaning for our enviroment. i can't decide if I like it or not but the artist is talented for sure

I am always impressed with the talent of these mural artists. The Firehouse one is my favorite. I smiled at the Octopus quote. I like those interesting creatures very much.
