This 6'x25' mural depicts the client's historic property in Riverside. Included are the original barn, now a garage for his Model A Ford, and the former owner of the property which once had a chicken ranch.

Faux brick columns frame the mural and will separate each additional mural. There will be five more scenes of historical places in Riverside.

Cafe Royal Redlands Mural

This sepia-toned mural at Cafe Royal in the historic Fox Theatre building celebrates Redlands's history and bicycling with an 1890's scene. The cafe serves many local cyclists as well as those who race in the Redlands Bicycle Classic, and it is on the race course. Behind the two cyclists is the A.K. Smiley Public Library. The mural is framed by a doorway that was covered.

North Tamarind Elementary School, Fontana

United Way - Hands On Inland Empire Day

In October 2007 I worked with volunteers to create murals for North Tamarind Elementary School in Fontana as a part of United Way's Hands On Inland Empire Day. The murals depict cougars (the school's mascot) in one of their natural habitats, the mountains. These mountains in the mural were inspired by the San Bernardino range, which is visible from the school. I sketched the murals and mixed the colors in advance, and then I supervised the painting. It was a lot of fun, and everyone was amazed to see what they had a part in creating.

Redlands Market Night
This mural was commissioned by the Downtown Redlands Business Association. The idea was to illustrate Redlands's weekly Thursday farmer's market, yet with a vintage 1950' or 60's look.

Since Market Night wasn't started until the 80's, I created a scene of my own. I researched images of State Street from the 60's, and used friends and family as models for the characters in the mural.

It is located off Sixth Street between Redlands Blvd. and State Street on the back of the Blesch & Assoc. Realty office in downtown Redlands.
