Not sure what this mural is meant to be saying, exactly. To me, it speaks to keeping the Feds outta DC’s business — although the bad guy there is obviously not the executive branch, but those lunatics on the Hill. LUNATICS.
U Street — 2015
If anyone told me that there were dozens of murals in DC, I wouldn’t have believed it. Sure Marilyn and a few others — but all of these wild and beautiful works of art on our streets and in our alleys? No way. Yet, here they are. Certain neighborhoods seem to have really embraced the medium: U Street, Columbia Heights, Adams Morgan, Brightwood and Park View. I haven’t ventured much into Southeast or Far Northeast yet, so we’ll see what’s there. But so far, I amazed that I find new art on the streets every weekend, almost everywhere I go.

The city is empty today — and it feels great. Like a huge exhale.
This mural is on the backside of Paul Junior High Public Charter School, across from some community gardens. I love the multi-hued hand. And the recycling symbol tree. There’s more of it to the right, that includes a big pile of vegetables and a commitment to being green. It’s great.
