These 'artworks' are a complete disgrace to InverG. Tacky doesn't begin to describe it. It's embarrassing walking up the High St. these days, and the new one above Nisa is the cherry on the top. Are any of these artists even professionally trained? I doubt Alness or Tain would be allowed to be defaced in this way.

Sorry you feel so strongly about Invergordon’s murals, but everyone is entitled to their opinion and we respect that. However, our murals have gone a long way to putting Invergordon on the map. There must be thousands of photos all over the world taken by cruise line passengers who initially were bussed out of the town. The murals have encouraged passengers to spend some time in Invergordon which can only be a benefit to local businesses. If you are ever about when a cruise liner is in, take a stroll along the High Street and the passengers enthusiasm might make you think differently. As to the artists please have a look at our artist profiles to check out their qualifications and experience.
Many voluntary groups spend a lot of time and effort trying to improve our town and surely their efforts should be encouraged.
