Over these seemingly countless Covid-19 months, instead of frequently running into friends on the streets, these are the familiar faces that make me smile and help keep me feeling rooted to place.
They may not talk, but they do speak to me.

Thank you for sharing, those were wonderful!Susan DarlingSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone
The streets are the museums these days.
Wow! what wonderful faces! thanks for sharing.
I know!
WOW 🤩 just gets better all the time
The creativity and talent always amazes me!
Quite amazing Shannon…so happy you are sharing the dynamic creative walls of Oaxaca. These might not be there the next time I visit —- that’s the beauty of your documentation. Hooooooraaaaay!
Thanks, Sheri! I’ve come to think of the street art as rotating exhibitions. 😉
Unbelievably beautiful I so wish I could
walk those streets. Today in Sausalito was
like being on Mars the🔥, the smoke and all the ash. Crazy 😜
I wish you could, too. Friends and family have been posting photos from SF and Marin. Yikes! Stay safe.
Stunning. Oh how I miss Oaxaca. Thank you for all of the dynamic images.
Glad you like. I love discovering and documenting them!
Wave a hello from me, describe my hat and give my regards to our Tamaleria (and others ) in the ‘hood!
Will do!
