Happy T~K~W Day!
This is a very small portion of the hundred foot long Magnolia Thunderpussy Mural in Columbus' Short North Area. Created by Jon Strommel, a 2009 Columbus College of Art and Design grad, led a group of artists in brightening the northern end of the Short North with this and a coordinating mural across the street.
Googly-eyed creatures throwing up rainbows often appear in Strommel's work. As if straight out of a dream, characters of all different shapes and colors cavort in a crazy smorgasbord.
