Mural Love on Grande Avenue

Last month, I helped out a friend while she worked at her new property, Oasis on Grand, at the Grand Avenue Festival. There was a map of the murals off of Grand Avenue and her sister and I walked around and photographed them. Here, I am going to briefly name off the murals, but if you're really interested, use the information I provide while looking at the map [this is the larger version]. I must also warn you, and prevent confusion, the photos display the order in which I decided to find the murals, thus they do not coincide with the order listed on the map.

This mural is #4 on the map, "Nerd Monster" by Luster Kaboom

These next few photos are of #3, "Journey of Garlands" by Beatrice  Moore.

Here is an extremely large mural, listed as #2. "Peace and Diversity"  by Ray Rivas.

These series of photos all line an entire small parking lot, #1 on the map, that resemble a recycling theme.  These works are done by several artists: Serc, Page, Stoec, Ekose, Brez, Alphen, and Bisk.

These monsters are located as #5 on the map. "The Jungle" by Luster Kaboom.

This is #6, "Jesus Saves" by Francisco Enuf Garcia. The great thing about this mural was the illuminated halo around the figure. I took this photo during sunset which was setting exactly perpendicularly to the left of this photo/mural. I had to ask my friend if that was the painting or just the sun. It was kind of bizarre, but neat.

This awesome building can be located on the map as #11. "Blue Ooze" by Luster Kaboom.

The child's head on the dumpster was done by El Mac.

This is "Triclops" also by Luster Kaboom, #10.

This parking lot is #9, these photos are of "Funny Faces" by Luster Kaboom. However I didn't capture the other works that lined the other faces of these walls.

This mural is probably my favorite, #8, stretches across the whole lot wall. This also displays works of several artists: Francisco Enuf Garcia, Albon Fernandez, Edgar Fernandez, ave chee, and Jeff Slim.

This was the last mural, #7, that I did not get great photos of due to the fact that it was getting darker outside. This was painted by Sentrock, Noel Bartel, and neighborhood kids.
