131/365: Got A Spike?

.

This is the last of the three strange murals on the front of the Alder Frame Lofts building. The graphics on all of them are arresting but creepy. Our eyes are drawn to the woman in the foreground of this one. Her eyes, hair and wine are all black, her piercing gaze fixes the viewer. Sections of the image have been torn away. I think the building has vampires.

Yes, St. Louis Daily Photo has bananas.

130/365: If You Lived Here You'd Be Home By Now

.

This is the second of the three strange murals made of weatherproof sheets, hung on the side of the Alder Frame Lofts building toward the edge of downtown. There must be some marketing idea behind it, however strangely expressed. Maybe it's trying to tell hip, young professional women that this is a good place to live, or men (young, hip, professional or otherwise) that you could live down the hall from someone like this. I don't know if the approach has been successful.

St. Louis Daily Photo is jumping for joy.
