There are two large murals near the intersection of East Fremont and North 6th in Las Vegas. In the foreground is this pair of teal hands. This is one of two murals that Brazilian duo Bicicleta Sem Freio (aka Douglas de Castro and Renato Pereira) painted in Vegas during the ‘Life is Beautiful’ event of 2017.

“below: Behind, Linus has a complaint writ large in a mural by Mark Drew. The text is a quote from C.R.E.A.M., a song by Wu Tang Gang.
“Life as a shorty shouldn’t be so rough
But as the world turned, I learned life is hell
Livin’ in the world no different from a cell.”

below: The other mural by Bicicleta Sem Freio has a musical theme.

below: Dark blue faced trumpet player.

below: Another blue faced trumpet player, but a little paler. There is a strong resemblance between the hands in this mural and those in the top mural.
