I found this on the brick wall of a building in Rochester, MN. It was not displayed like this, but is has all the components. I can't help but think that is Janis Joplin belting out the blues.

I see Rochester playing the sax, but where is Jack Benny and his violin? Good work, Tick!

Seems like mostly yellows and oranges, but O.K. :) I like your composition. I was trying to figure out if it was one or multiple images. Nice work.

Bebop, foot stompin' music on a wall! This is a talented collage highlighting some very colorful graffiti, Tick. Good luck in the contest.

Ron, this is amazing, this is pure 'Art' grafitti, made by an unknown artist and you as a wellknown photographer !
This is a perfect entry for the current contest, old fellow !

Tick, to me a lot of graffiti is just rubbish, but this is 'ART' (written in capitals). Great collage Owd Fella and a perfect entry for the contest.
Good Luck!

really nice work here! i love the blues!! great one for the contest!!! you know there's this building in Detroit Mi. just like this one Tick. well it doesnt have as many musicians, nor nearly as colorful, i dont think Janis is in it, it does have a few characters playing rock and roll, come to think about it? its nothing like this one at all! its urban art on a brick wall though.

LOL! Sly
