Rainbow-Colored Lips Brighten Up Patricia's GreenInstagram/ryanm1003
Six multicolored mouths have been painted by an anonymous artist on a crosswalk at Patricia's Green.

The colorful pairs of lips appear on the pavement at Octavia and Linden, near Miette. Blogger Michael Petrelis spotted the lips yesterday morning, noting, "Bright rainbow lips highlighting the pedestrian crosswalk not only caught my queer eye, but I think are a great safety enhancement for pedestrians. When car drivers see the lips, they're likely to slow down and look at them." The lips have been in place for at least a couple of weeks, but we don't yet know who painted them, nor why. If anyone out there has an answer, by all means let us know in the comments. Thanks Patrick C. for the tip!
