A Little La Jolla Color…Too…

…follow up from last Mural Monday’s post and continue to add some lively color to your Valentine’s Day.

This is another public art mural project in La Jolla. See this “Behind the Scenes” link to see why this one is different from last Monday’s in that it required audience participation to create it. The mural is randomly “colored” by 9,000 tiles based on the question, “What is your favorite color?” as people pass by.

Read more about the artistic result (photo below) of those randomly chosen tiles.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
