The murals of BrokenCrow

I heard about broken crow while writing my review of P.O.S - Never better. BrokenCrow is an art experiment that consists of John Grider and Mike Fitzsimmons. Their purpose is to bring Wild-life back to the urban community .



BrokenCrow has done murals in Duluth, Minnesota .Milwaukee, Wisconsin. St. Paul, Minnesota. Brooklyn, New York and many others. They have brought life and color to the grayest of urban wastelands and have even done murals on private houses. I wonder how the neighborhood committee felt about it?


What I like most about BrokeCrow's murals is how psychedelic they make the animals look. The blue monkey from the above picture to the red cheetah and of course the green Ram. the animals send you into a color high and  immediately transport you a faraway land where the rainbow porcupine roams(or is that a hedgehog?).
