Monday Mural: tree frog

This is part of a large mural in West Oakland.  Quite a while back I showed a different portion featuring a hummingbird.  For all kinds of reasons, my most recent mural finds are not yet available to me, so I'm reduced to combing the archives.  But once finding this one, I realized this little guy is pretty spectacular looking.  He's beautiful if not a little tentative.

Monday Mural: heart felt

Fabian Marquez did this piece on a wall in Chinatown.  He seems to be fascinated by the human heart, since I've seen a number of these in the downtown area.  I can't tell you why, but I like this.

Monday Mural: almost caught

Another Chinatown mural but I'm not sure if it is by the Dragon School or not.  What I am sure of is that this composition is full of cultural references that I am ignorant of.  See the woman who is almost in the creepy guy's grasp?

Monday Mural: masks

Found on San Pablo Avenue in West Oakland.  Too ambiguous for me but there's a definite aura of sadness.
