Hi everyone, its Robbie Cheadle here today with the August post in my Street and Public Art on LatinosUSA – English Edition.

The street artwork featured below was contributed by the amazingly talented artist, blogger, writer, and costume designer or fabric wizard, Resa McConaghy.

Animal garage door painting by «Sun of Aquarius»

I just love this vibrant and colourful painting of animals on a garage door. It’s intriguing for me to note that the four animals depicted in this painting are from different parts of the world: A tiger from India, a Koala bear from Australia and a gorilla from Africa. Frogs are found in most places so it is a uniting creature. I was also fascinated by the background that could be brightly coloured foliage but could also be the feathers of a tropic bird.

The three images below are of all four of the animals spanning the entire garage door. Each image is taken from a slightly different perspective.

About Resa McConaghy

My name is Resa McConaghy. I’m a semi-retired Costume Designer for film and television.

My first Art Gown “Strawberry Kisses” was to create some beauty in my life after mom died. It was a hit with people, so I continued to make and post more “Art Gowns”.

At some early point, I began upcycling, repurposing and in general making the gowns out of any fabric or notions that were not new goods. I was using up anything headed for landfill.

The Art Gowns are available to borrow or rent (situation dependant) for Gala’s, photo shoots and film production.
