Look away arachnophobes, this awesome rooftop mural might make your skin crawl.
This massive trompe l’oeil, depicting two Opiliones (otherwise known as harvestmen or daddy longlegs) who appear to have overtaken a building, was created on the roof of the Seattle Center Armory (formerly known as the Center House) by local artist and science illustrator Marlin Peterson.
Marlin was commissioned by the Washington State Artist Trust to create this enormous piece of outdoor artwork. After failing to find a suitably large wall, he began seeking out a large roof and had the brilliant idea to find something easily visible from above. Of course, one of the very best places in Seattle from which to look down is the Seattle Space Needle.
Visit Marlin Peterson’s website to view lots more photos of this amazing project and learn about how he created these gigantic creepy-crawlies.

RETNA & EL MAC COLLAB. Salt Lake City “Ave Maria” 2009
They have been collaborating for some time now and is easily one of my favorites. my favorites. Also part of Retna’s calligraphy has been translated. In El Mac’s blog, he says that part of the text in the halo translates to the beginning of the Ave Maria (Hail Marry) in Latin.*In every collaboration between them EL MAC is the one doing the portraits (spray can) while RETNA is works on the background (both paint & spray paint).

These are all murals in my neighborhood done by El Mac & Retna. I feel pretty lucky to live somewhere where all this art is within walking distance of my apartment and all I have to do is go stand on a street corner and enjoy it…
