| This
mural is on Main Street in Los Gatos, California.
Even the woman peering into the ruin is part of the mural. |
| This
is Taylor Hall, California State University, Chico, California.
The Doric-style columns are actually nothing but paint. |
| This
mural in Honolulu, Hawaii, took two months of studio work
to plan and another six months to execute with the help of 11 other artists. Featured are Queen Liliuokalani, the last monarch of the Hawaiian Islands, and Duke Kahanamoku, the ultimate father of surfing. |
| This
mural at the Cafe Trompe L'oeil, San Jose, California,
is entitled "Art Imitating Life Imitating Art Imitating Life". This customer doesn't leave at closing time (she's part of the painting - hard to believe). |
| This
mural is inTwenty-nine Palms, California. "Valentine", the
bull, and a patient buzzard are waiting for the artist to awake (again - they are all part of the art)! |
| This
is titled 'Bay in a Bottle' in Santa Cruz, California.
The passer-by is part of the mural. |
| This
looks like a nice spot to rest your weary feet on a
sidewalk in front of the Sarasota County Health Center, Florida. |
| "Slowin'
Down to Take a Look" is in Winslow, Arizona.
Included, of course, is "a girl, my lord, in a flat bed Ford slowin'down to take a look at me." |
