Mural off Lafayette Street in Santa Clara
I was running an errand when I saw this painting on a wall between two buildings out of the corner of my eye. Pleasant surprise.
Mural Bus
This artfully painted bus was seen parked in south San Jose. While not confirmed, this sure looks like the work of San Jose artist Patrick Hofmeister (www.hofmeisterart.com) who painted a downtown parking garage in San Jose.
Painted Rock
Some Sky
Sunflowers
The sunflower stocks have since dried and are now removed from the garden bed, breaking down in the mulch pile. The seeds have all gone to feed the local squirrel. That was not originally the plan, though it worked out just fine that way. Looking back over these photos from June before the seeds developed.
Empire & 13th
Happy Flowers
California Poppies; so beautiful.
Mural on a Home’s Gate
I find it fascinating and a special treat when I see art and murals on private residences. This one found in south San Jose on a wooden gate.
Watsonville History Mural
I came across this mural on an adventure in Watsonville, near the Monterey Bay.
It is called “Watsonville History Mural” by artists Ome Garcia and Paul De Worken. (https://www.artscouncilsc.org/teaching-artist-directory/ome-garcia/, https://www.artscouncilsc.org/teaching-artist-directory/paul-de-worken/)
