Participant#PublicArtFinder – Flourish by Harry McDaniel at the Rockville Senior Center. Made of brushed aluminum to look like curvy trees, the branches actually move with the wind! I took a video but couldn’t post it here nor on Strava.

ParticipantName: Midtown Community Community Mural
Artist: Dana Ann Scheurer
Location: New Dominion Parkway, RestonI loved the brightness of this mural. I also liked how the artist incorporated so much of Reston in the mural. The more I look at the more is see.

ParticipantShakespeare in the Park. The Central Park road loop was nicely cleared, but very, very busy with runners and pedestrians. I only saw five or six roadies today.

Will you add a pic of the #publicartfinder piece for those of us who lack the ability to envisage it from your description alone?

ParticipantIf you are a Mexican restaurant or taco place, these days you also need a mural. This is the mural on the side of Rebel Taco next to the U St Metro.

ParticipantBoomer, thanks for extending this to the weekend. Wraps are a little harder to come by farther out from Arlington/Alex. The weather cleared enough for me to go on a real hunt today for the traffic box wraps in Fairfax. So here they are! The green one is called, “Rocks” and the multi-colored one is called “Spirits Rising”. Up close you can see some spirit-like figures in the latter, but they’re a bit hard to discern. More photos on my strava.
