As I was thinking about @kus-knees latest "mundane art" contest
and on my way home after dinner in the restaurant at the hotel next door.....
I stopped to take this night time shot of some damaged and discolored ashphalt.
I think that 
my shoe at the bottom of the picture makes it especially endearing, don't you think? :-)
.
.
By the way, here's the entrance to the hotel next door:
(yeah, yeah, I know it says "EXIT". Use your imagination!)
Entering the Perla Hotel, Loutraki, Greece
.
.

over and out
@onceuponatime
This is a defeat for marketing.. your shoe becomes famous for your inspiration and not for its brand name! Enjoy your stay! :)

you have an eye for the abstract !! ;) :D :D ... And the shoe ? Adds charm to the abstract :) ... nice and easy and mundane. And yes, the way you enter is the way you exit :). The circle of life completes itself on the same point :D :D ... I too am an art person. I paint, to be more specific :) .. Check out my blog if you have the time :)

Interesting concept, mundane art... the beauty found in unlikely spaces. Wasn't it Leonardo Da Vinci who taught his students how to see/draw better by observing cracks in the wall and the pattern in stains.

Picking poems from the air! And from trees, and amidst the flowers of meadows too.
