About The Mural

After considering several alternatives, the design team centered around an enduring characteristic of our area – the California Redwood.  Since the wall is stark and vertical, we wanted to select something that provided an uplifting invitation to engage the imagination.  ““The mural brings an element of surprise and regional beauty to a subject, the wall, which is imposing, unfriendly, and not very attractive on it’s own,” observed Mr. Uribe.
