Carlsbad Art Wall November 2022

 

The 4th mural of 2022 for the Carlsbad art wall, now in its 8th year, was painted on November 6th and 7th by artist CJ Troxell.

 

And it may be one of the more thoughtful murals we’ve had, with something to ponder. What do you think?

Well-known Carlsbad artist, Bryan Snyder, founded the #CarlsbadArtWall in 2015, in cooperation with the owner of Senor Grubby’s Mexican Restaurant in Carlsbad Village.

 

Bryan also founded the Carlsbad Alley Art Wall, among other art projects in Carlsbad.

 

The Carlsbad Art Wall provides residents and visitors alike an opportunity to enjoy a variety of temporary public art by local, regional, and sometimes even international, artists.

 

The public also can watch the artists at work on their creations, which are typically painted over a 2-day period, often Saturday and Sunday.

 

Even if you haven’t heard the official name, Carlsbad Art Wall, you’ve probably noticed the changing murals at Senor Grubby’s Mexican Restaurant’s east-facing wall if you live in the area or have visited Carlsbad Village.

 

The Carlsbad Art Wall is just west of the train tracks, across the street from the Carlsbad Village Faire Shopping Center, as you head to the beach. It’s easy to spot.

 

Carlsbad’s reputation as an arts community continues to expand with abundant public art (interactive map on the City of Carlsbad website). There are multiple art galleries, a performance theater, several arts and crafts fairs, and live music events throughout the year. The Carlsbad Art Wall is a special part of our vibrant arts community!

Hi Jeff- I do love the Carlsbad Art Wall and thank you for sharing it. To me, someone who is masculine (if we still use that word) doesn't need to prove anything. It is through their actions and beliefs that we see their strength.

Well said Kathy Streib, and an excellent point.

Thanks for stopping by - I always look forward to sharing these wall murals.

Jeff eight years makes this an established event, and good to see it survived COVID.

Hi George Souto 

It's been fun to watch all these years, and yes, it seems to be one thing that was not altered by Covid.

Hi Jeff... always love your art wall mural updates. We just had a new one completed in Charlotte in the past couple of weeks, but I never posted anything about it.

Thank you Nina Hollander, Broker

I enjoy sharing these creations and am glad others enjoy them, too.

Would love to see the Charlotte art if you feel inspired to share it!

That's a good one.  Too bad it will be painted over soon.

Thank you Georgie Hunter R(S) 58089 

We get about 3 months to enjoy it, and people's photos and posts will allow others to enjoy it once it's gone.

I am with Kathy Streib on that one and even though the mural is interesting, I find the statement a bit odd.  To me, it seems to say that the world is definitely too sensitive and soft these days.
