Kingfisher Mural

The kingfisher mural on St. Paul’s Avenue is a very striking painting that maybe not many people have appreciated. It’s painted on the side of a house that is the entrance to a busy car park, without a pavement opposite so there isn’t that much foot traffic. What traffic there is, is made up of drivers navigating 3 narrow lanes who certainly aren’t looking up to admire this gorgeous painting by Curtis Hylton.

I was surprised to learn that the mural was completed in 2019. I imagined it was newer but then, there probably weren’t many murals painted in 2020. Mick wrote about the mural here where you can find more details about it.

Who’s for supper?

A mural on a wall in Dublin a few weeks ago.

We passed this while walking back to our hotel. I get the feeling there’s a story behind this picture. Does anyone know it?
