This is part of another mural from the same community centre as last week's mural. Done by Indigenous artist Philip Cote, this one shows a Thunderbird and Turtle. I have shown you some of his work in the past. I'm not expert enough to be able to accurately tell you the significance of these symbols in the culture so won't try. Next week I will show you the rest.

A gorgeous mural. The colours captured my imagination.
Hello,
Love the colorful mural, the turtle is pretty.
Take care, enjoy your day! Have a great new week!
It is awesome.
I love this. The colors are so vivid and the patterns are wonderful.
Philip Cote certainly is a talented muralist. Love the patterns in both the Thunderbird's wing and the Turtle's shell, both bright and vibrant.
Love being back!! The turtle image is superb!!
Adds interest to an otherwise mundane corner.
It certainly does evoke his background.
Beautiful mural, nice colours. I love the turtle.
It is wonderful seeing First Nations represented. We've done them so much harm.
Nice! Beautifully done!
This is beautiful Pat. The way Indigenous artists use colour is so special 💜
Great colors in this mural.
Creative and colorful!
It's very nice Pat, reminds me of the Aboriginal paintings in Australia.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals.
Nice mural.
Hugs
