I realise this is a gardening blog, but I want to draw your attention to some cool art in my neighbourhood. If you are near the Parkallen area of south Edmonton, check out the colourful mural called "The Conversation" by Métis artist Jean Paul Langlois.
The vibrant mural fills the south side of a two story building at 6551 111 Street. You can't miss it. The building itself is painted in bright colours. The Conversation steps up the pizzaz with 6 bold cowboy and Indigenous looking figures on horseback set against a vivid sky. The mural is interesting and beautiful with cheerful colour.
It’s yours to enjoy and ponder. The Conversation is a welcome gift to the Parkallen community. Thanks to the muralist and to the sponsor.
See Jean Paul Langlois talking about The Conversation in the video below (Edmonton Journal).
