Some topical, if hilariously misspelled, protest graffiti - along some lovely little stenciled...VHS tapes? I think? Nice duo, side of the Bartell Theatre downtown. Though c'mon folks, is "strike" really that hard to spell (unless we're talking the Urban Dictionary definition for "stike")?

Over at the corner of Cottage Grove Dr. and Monona Dr., on the city's northeast side, the Jade Monkey Cocktail Bar sports this pretty epic mural on the back wall of its building. I've passed it a few times before but never had my camera handy, until today. When it was cloudy and the light was awful. But hell, it's still some (presumably commissioned) beautiful work!
