Yesterday while out walking with a friend, I was surprised and delighted to see the new mural painted by Thomas Wood, a Bellingham artist, as the backdrop to small outdoor music stage at Boulevard Park on Bellingham's waterfront. In addition, Tom painted a smaller mural on the other side of the backdrop wall. The new music stage was privately funded in memory of Mark Witter, a local musician.
Below are three small images from the stage backdrop-sized mural, a wondrous art and music history pastiche which includes images taken from Tom's lifetime work as a printmaker and painter. If I didn't live in Bellingham, I would travel to see this mural. It speaks of the power of art and music and people and animals and love.
