Description
This is an example of Ekphrasic art which is art expressing art. The incredible mural is by Robert Wyland, a famous artist who in 2008 completed his lifetime goal of painting 100 'Whaling Walls'. This one is on a K-Mart in Marathon Florida in the Florida Keys. Locals refer to the 'Keys' as the 'Conch Republic'. It's sort of a triple Ekphrasic in that the title of the photo and the gait of the young man is about 'truckin' which is a creation of cartoonist Robert Crumb.
