It pays to look back sometimes



This mural depicting a Pacific Northwest scene is on the south side of a store on Commercial St. between Court and State Sts. Commercial is a one-way street going south which probably explains why I never noticed it before. The 'rock' underneath the boy bares the signature of muralist Abram Heard, dated 1998. It's in fairly good shape after 10 years in direct sun. (The white squares are signs which state who may park in the adjacent lot.)

That's a great way to spiff up a boring parking zone and alley.

Très réjouissant. Et je comprends l'enfant qui grimpe vers la lumière.
