Mural Painting at Cowden Automotive
The mural I painted
at Cowden Automotive
is a panorama of the San Francisco Bay Area as seen from the Bay Bridge.
Mt. Tamalpais is on the viewer's left. From the mountain, the scene stretches
to the Golden Gate, through San Francisco, then to the lakes and bird
sanctuaries of the San Francisco Peninsula.
The mural is composed of ten panels, divided
by structural supports along the wall. Each panel is 15 feet long and 10
feet high. The total length of the mural is 55 yards. The mural starts
at the Cowden Automotive main entrance on Folsom Street and continues to
the secondary entrance on Shipley Street. It is painted inside the shop
and can be seen during business hours.
How I came to paint the mural at Cowden Automotive
is told in the next two web pages under the titles
Can You See It From the Moon
and Getting the Word Out.
