The Lithuanian-born artist had beautiful wall painting and welded iron wall caricatures all over Georgetown area are left as wonderful souvenirs to Malaysians. The project is funded by George Town Festival while the paints were sponsored by a paint company, Murobond. The hit of finding the artworks had become one of our activities during our visits in Penang.

Reaching Up @ Cannon Street
"This Old Man" Mural @ Armenian Street
Tua Pek Kong Hneoh Grand Float Procession in the year of Tiger @ Lebuh Armenian

This should be local's street art.

Searching for artwork under hot sun was really tiring and we headed to have ice-cream to reduce the heat before going to Chow Jetty for the final mural: “Children in a Boat".
We were sad to find that the wall painting “Children in a Boat" was not in a good condition where the children faces were hardly seen.
