Clearwater mural by fine artist Ana Livingston – Tampa Bay (Clearwater) Florida. via http://analivingston.wordpress.com/

Florida muralist Ana Livingston has been following our Inside Out blog for a while now, and I thought it was high time we sent you over to her site to have a look at the fantastic murals she’s been painting in Clearwater, Florida.

Her Clearwater mural is a big, bold, bright piece – so very Florida! There’s a great gallery of the progress of the work here.

Oswestry’s own Cambrian railway mural, put up on the side wall of the old Woolworth’s has proven extremely popular. Now that the town’s getting another one in the form of Marja’s mural on The George, there’s more mural work in Oswestry than I ever thought there would be.

Is Oswestry secretly acquiring a unique art identity as a Town of Murals? Maybe we could do a muralist-exchange programme: someone could go to Clearwater, Florida and paint a mural of Oswestry in the rain, and Ana could come to Oswestry and slap a bit of that Florida sunshine on the Market Hall!
