  2. Patrick Messersmith – “Haunted Waters” 
  3. 12th Armored Division Memorial Museum – Pedro Rivera – Refurbishing of Tank Mural “Annette” 
  4. Calina Mishay Johnson – “Big Love in a Small Town” 
  5. The Last Remains Antiques & Estate Sales – Stephanie Prosser

  14. Calina Mishay Johnson – “Angel Selfie Wings” – North Third Street and Pine Street 
  15. Precision Heating and Cooling – Calina Mishay Johnson – “Succulent Wall” 

This took us 2 whole hours but we had a blast in the spring weather. If you plan on lingering at any location for extra selfie time, plan on spending at least 3 hours. But it’s a great weekend outing for those looking to spruce up their Instagram feed with a little color.

      I find it interesting, with all due respect, that the first major mural in the City of Abilene on South 1st, would be photographed in this manner. It’s obvious that someone wanted it to look really bad. No light, where you can see any color or detail. The angle of the shot poor and more. Whoever was behind this project obviously was purposely trying to make the mural look bad, while making all the other murals look great. You can’t cover up truth in history, although a hand full have tried!! That mural was the first in the downtown area to begin the mural explosion that came AFTERWARD. You would think more respect would be paid to it than this. But not surprised at all! You don’t hurt me by doing this. You hurt yourself and more.

        If they wanted to make the mural look bad or be disrespectful, they would’ve just excluded it from the list. There are several that are not on here. As a photographer, the angles and approach used in each photo is the same, and the directions each mural faces (as I’ve visited all of these) is in great light, while the sun never really beautifully illuminates that wall at Thomas Everett’s unfortunately/is in a tough spot to get close. By your name, I might wager a guess you’re the artist. It’s a beautiful mural, and it could’ve been photographed better, but I think you taking amateur photography personally and twisting it into a commentary on covering up history might be a stretch. I mean this with all respect.
