There’s little that makes me happier than a town with well done public art. Isn’t this mural spectacular? That horse looks like he could step right off the wall and gallop down the street.

It’s called “Picasso: Spirit of the West.”

It’s in Golden, Colorado. Look for it if you’re ever there. The utility box is distracting but this is still stunning. Commissioned by their Public Art Commission, it was created by local artist Christina Morrison last fall just before my visit.
