Monday Mural: Doty's parrot

Sorry for the delay.   Internet problems.  Grrr.

A new mural is going up in East Oakland near Fruitvale Avenue.  The canvas is a sawtooth building which now serves as artist work spaces.  Multiple artists have been contracted to decorate the wall facing E. 12th Street and they expect to be done by the beginning of August.  This section is by Doty who has previously been featured here and here.  Fellow artist Polka told me Doty is now into birds.  Hopefully I'll be able to document more of the mural's progress.

If you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme's for you.  Just follow the Linky steps below.  You get to decide what constitutes a mural.  Be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters.  Looking forward to the mural finds posted this week.

    That's a magnificent one there! Great capture.
    My "murals" are very unusual today, comprising pierce-work on metal, which nevertheless mirror the tree branches of the park they are found in.

    I can't get over all the murals in your community. And, the parrot/macaw is a real beauty!

    Maybe we have more than I realize. At any rate, we finally got to participate today!

    A beautiful rendition of a parrot, especially well done on the rippled surface of the building.

    It is well painted but must have been difficult with the bump-out through the bird's head.
