Caption: LUDO emailed a recent work on the streets of Paris. He writes, it's cut, painted at my studio with acrylic, then organized by numbers on some kind of grid to not get lost with all the rolls.. When asked if it's a legal piece, well... let's just say the city is quiet as many Parisians are out enjoying their summer holiday, and it only took one day with a cherry picker. fecalface.com

Caption: In honor of Thomas Eakins, our Mural of the Day is "Fairmount Waltz" (2006) by David Gordon. The mural is located at 851 n. 29th Street. Today is the 169th birthday of painter Thomas Eakins. The office of the Mural Arts Program is in Eakins' Philadelphia home, and earlier this month we painted the ground at Eakins' Oval on The Parkway. If you look closely at "Fairmount Waltz," you can see a cellist who is based on an Eakins' painting. Photo by Jack Ramsdale. #muralarts #eakins #thomaseakins
