Muralmania!
A comment I received on my recent posting 'are there any plain walls in Oakland?!' And the answer is no, there are not. All the walls are painted everywhere. Well not quite, but one of Oakland's many charms is it's abundance of street art, five in so many different styles and by so many different people. Here are two murals painted on the side of a building in Adams Point, near Lake Merritt, and the third is just off Telegraph in uptown.
