This year, 2022, is Tweety Bird's 80th birthday (#Tweety80). A mural on the south wall of English Salon & Spa takes you back to those Looney (Tunes) days:

BG Boyd Photography sent this spectacular version of the photo above:
Nina Palomba painted the mural. Here's her signature at the lower right corner:
I didn't recognize her style in other Tucson murals. It turns out that she's painting Tweety murals around the US. I found that from the QR code, which is at the lower left of the mural:
(Geek note: Look closely — you can click on the image for a larger view. Some of the dots and lines aren't perfect. Did she paint the QR code by hand?!)

That code leads to the web address https://www.looneytunes.com/tweety80/ — where you'll find the bios of Nina and other artists, and photos of other Tweety muwals.

That's all Folks!
