Fresh Paint

My city Lexington made a leap forward creatively by embracing this latest piece of downtown street art. There are no horses, bluegrass hills or fiddles in its composition. It's beguiling and I love it.

"Graffiti ultimately wins out over proper art because it becomes part of your city, it's a tool; "I'll meet you in that pub, you know, the one opposite that wall with a picture of a monkey holding a chainsaw". I mean, how much more useful can a painting be than that?"
