Waipu Winner!
I think this is one of the most interesting murals I've seen so far. This one in Waipu Cove painted by Daniel Mills is geared towards the history of the town. Apparently the artist took about 3 weeks to research and was painted in 2007 yet still looks almost new.
Waipu is one of those places in NZ that was settled by Scottish immigrants about 150 years ago and includes a portrait of Reverend Norman McLeod, includes Scottish tartan how the old stores would've looked.
The mural was designed with input from the Waipu Museum and apparently school groups are seen here using the art for history lessons.
Linking up with Mural Monday and Our World Tuesday.
