Current Photo Friday theme: Life
A hashtag I frequently use on Instagram is #artislife, and one of the things I love about Houston is the abundance of art: in museums, in galleries, in graffiti, on train cars that pass by, and in many varieties of public art. I haven’t been to a museum since 2019, so a lot of my art appreciation has become drive-by.
This was a day when traffic light timing gave me a chance to shoot with my phone. The artist is Joy Matheson, and she’s done several mini murals throughout Houston. NASA is such a big part of Houston’s history (how many times have you heard or said the line, “Houston, we have a problem?”).
Art is one of life’s gifts.
hallo spaceboy – david bowie and the pet shop boys
(Also, magnificent mural!)
I love seeing these all over the place when I’m driving, but I’m rarely in a position to take photos.
David Bowie and the Pet Shop Boys? You’re speaking my language!
It’s on my Pet Shop Boys Disco 4 CD.
Last hot season, I went through all of the ‘P’ artists going to and from work. There was weeks of Pet Shop Boys blasting out of my car while waiting in a line of cars to get through the gates at work. I’m sure someone may have realized I’m a Pet Shop Boys fan.
Do you wanta be free?

Hallo Spaceboy!!!
