Desert Smokers

 

I saw this mural around two months ago but every time I'd drive past there was a row of cars parked in front of it.  Finally I caught a day with no cars. This desert mural was done by the artist who goes by MrDowntownPHX.  I believe his name is Jesse Perry.  This is on the side of Zong! Smoke Shop so all those desert creatures are smoking.


Here's a close up of the smoking rattle snake.  It's nicely painted but I'm hoping those critters will give up the cigarettes soon.  

Taking part in Monday Murals.

    I would wonder what they are smoking? Great color, there is so much talent in Phoenix.

    It is a good one, Sharon. The smoking isn't.

    Animals instinctively know that breathing in smoke is bad. It's only humans who can't figure that out!

    Very cool subject matter! And I agree, smoking is not good for anyone.... even rattle snakes.

    Smoking is bad for you though. But fun art all the same.
