Solano Way in East Oakland is chock full of street art, much of it changing over time. I've previously shown you many compositions here from local artists. This lovely gal looks like she comes from the cover of a 1950s detective novel. She is surrounded by several "pieces" or signatures of artists. The intention is to make them so stylized and ingenious that reading them is a challenge. Or, in my case, impossible.
