I am settling in to my new city and what an intriguing and colourful city it is. I’ve been here many times before as a visitor, but it’s even more amazing as a resident.
Recently, Michelle from This Melbourne Life presented “3 of the best … Laneways in Melbourne“, filling in for me as I usually write a “3 of the best” for Perelin Colors every second month. I asked Michelle to give her insight into the best laneways in Melbourne – these laneways are famous for the street art that adorns almost every surface within them. Thank you Michelle for such a great post – be sure to go check it out.
Last weekend, I was lucky enough to be invited by fellow blogger Julie Powell to go with her and her husband to The Melbourne Midsummer Faerie Rade (more photos to come on that later). Before the Rade, we had lunch and then they took me to visit some of Melbourne’s famous laneways. The shot above shows a few of the guys freshly painting some new work.
I love the vibrancy of the colours – even though each piece is quite haphazard, it looks cohesive in some way. I’m fascinated and I know that I will return often.
As you may have guessed, I now have the internet!! Finally!! So excited to be back online. I have a little collection of photos to share and I am looking forward to coming around and seeing what you’ve been up to.
