This was a wonderful, full, and eventful weekend. As a result I am short on time and chose to share a photo of coins in a fountain at the Greenville airport.

I mentioned yesterday that Connie and I are in Charleston for a wedding this weekend. Because Charleston has a major port which is very important to Greenville’s economy, I have chosen to share this portion of a mural at the Greenville Spartanburg airport … some may remember past photos from the same mural. The mural is titled Our Wonderful World and was created by Carl Tait.
In a previous post, about murals by Carl Tait, I received the following wonderful comment: “… Carl Tait is still painting at 89 years old and loves his work. He would be so proud to know that people appreciate his art after all these years.”

For our local readers this is a common sight. It comes from a display at the Greenville airport. The display includes a BMW Z4 roadster and the Crafted with Pride symbol in the background. Z4′s are build in a plant just outside of Greenville. Those of us living in Greenville are very proud of our ties to BMW. The Crafter with Pride symbol comes from Greenville’s textile heritage … I took the photo last weekend after dropping Connie off for a trip to Singapore. She attended and presented at a Creativity Conference.

Today I share a small portion of a brightly colored mural at the Greenville airport. A sign next to the mural states that the mural was created by Carl Tait and is titled “Our Wonderful World”. The sign goes on to explain the mural starts with a mysterious darkness, partials, and atoms. Then it progresses through the evolution of the world. The portion shown in today’s photo included people of the world. The mural ends with the sky, stars, and the moon … I recommend local readers visit the airport and spend some time matching the description provided by Carl Tait with the detail of the mural.
You might also be interested to see a previous post which shows a portion of a different mural by Carl Tait. Of specific interest are two comments from relatives of his one of which says “Carl Tait is still painting at 89 years old and loves his work. He would be so proud to know that people appreciate his art after all these years.”
