The teal wall behaves like deep water, but the apples glow as if they carry their own light. Studio Giftig calls the work River of Knowledge, with Venus Karim as the model. Downtown Fort Wayne and Art This Way brought the mural to the north-facing wall at 206 Pearl Street. The water refers to Fort Wayne’s three rivers; the apples connect Johnny Appleseed with knowledge, insight, and ideas taking root.

🌸 Belfast Spring — Belfast, Northern Ireland
Blue flax flowers open across a lavender wall while loose petals pass in front of Nienke Geven’s face. Painted for Hit the North on James Street South, the mural connects its flowers to Belfast’s linen history and to the idea of beginning again. The Linen Quarter BID documents it as a 12-metre-high commission on a former linen mill. The building’s past is not hidden by the image; it is the reason the flowers are there.

🛟 Safe Return — Morlaix, France
She looks past us, not at us. Safe Return imagines a fisherman’s wife waiting for her husband to come home. Maritime objects gather around her, while tobacco leaves rise behind her as a direct link to the former tobacco factory at Morlaix’s port. The model was Ria Klessens. The official 2021 Morlaix Arts Tour guide locates the mural at 2bis voie d’accès au port. The wall carries local history, but the wait needs no translation.
🌈 Kleur — Deventer, Netherlands
An older woman’s face anchors children, pigeons, leaves, a streetlamp, and fragments of Deventer. The mural covers more than 100 square metres on Deltalaan and was created with Dutch musician Snelle, inspired by his song Kleur. Street Art Streets documents the local details: Bergstraat and Bergkerk, pigeons from the song’s video, leaves from Deventer’s old Bakenboom, and Pleun’s Regenboogijsje hidden as an Easter egg. Bep Spa, Sumchog Kersbergen, Sarah, and Jesper modeled for the composition.

🌼 Petals of Time — Ticonderoga, New York, USA
Belva Blood was 103 when Studio Giftig painted her portrait across the rear of 119 Montcalm Street. She looks upward while white chrysanthemums and green leaves move around the building’s windows. Walls Between Waters connects the flowers to purity, longevity, and continuity, and to the way knowledge and stories pass between generations. Studio Giftig’s own account describes Belva as someone who has meant a great deal to Ticonderoga. The mural gives that community memory a name, a face, and more than a century of lived experience.
🐟 The Adventures of Señor Bubbles - by Naomi Haverland in Clearwater, Florida, USA
Clearwater’s official Art Oasis record identifies this 2024 mural as The Adventures of Señor Bubbles and places it at Señor Bubbles, 1408 Cleveland Street. A suited rider, giant goldfish and bright bubbles hover against the flat blue wall; Haverland’s painted shadows make the forms appear to float at different distances. It opens the countdown with a playful, immediately readable depth trick.
