Another wall was decorated a few years earlier, unfortunately there are spaces for cars right in front.

While the big whale isn’t strictly speaking a mural but a sculpture on Roker Beach in Sunderland, the techniques – painting on concrete – are the same.

The mural might be wishful thinking considering the building on which it is painted:
This is from Lorsch, Germany, and it is, of course, a Monday Mural. More murals can be found here.

For once, I found a mural with a signature – Christian Schopp (but no additional information on the artist, except for his mobile phone no. in the corner ). This is on the side of a newspaper kiosk in Bad Homburg, where magazines, tobacco, and lottery tickets are sold.

I seem to find these more traditional murals around here.
This one – from the old part of town of “Newtown an der Weinstraße” in Rhineland Pallatium, Germany – is called “Phantastische Allegorie zu Neustadt und der Lebensfreude” (Phantastic allegorie about Neustadt and zest for life).
