mural 019I was driving along Livingston Avenue in downtown Albany the other day, just minding my own business, and suddenly I had the uneasy feeling that someone was watching me…

And I was right…

In a deserted, snowy empty lot, this painting just stares out over the neighborhood.

I have no idea who this person is, or who painted the mural. It must have taken a long time, and the face has been there quite a while. You can see the bricks crumbling under the skin.

I love outdoor art. Keep your eyes peeled for this one if you happen to live near Albany, NY.
