The City of Lafayette hosted a gathering recognizing completion of the first mural in the city’s Downtown Mural Program on Monday.
Lafayette native and artist Rachel Perls kicked off the downtown art project with her interpretation of the native Matilija poppy, currently growing on the west-facing wall of Zahra Boutique Salon, 3578 Mt. Diablo Boulevard.
Nice work, Rachel, really livens up that wall!
Puts me in mind of Albuquerque but nicely done
The floral selection or the mural? And we thought she nailed it, too…
The blue sky, of course, and the sparseness, the emptiness evoked ABQ for me. Regardless, it is beautifully executed to this amateur eye.
