Yes, a play on words!
This mural in Little Italy, whose paint is gradually peeling away, is strangely appealing to my eye. The beautifully conceived face has obtained more texture–and beneath the blue and violet painted color there’s a layer that appears in hue like natural skin.
The mural was painted by Kelcey Fisher (@kfishla) about a year and a half ago. You can see it on a parking lot wall at LUCE on Kettner, just south of the now closed Little Italy’s Loading Dock bar and event venue.
As paint continues to flake away, the remaining beauty will sadly vanish.

Cool San Diego Sights! 
thank you for that mural information and your impressions. I walk by this every day, and have had similar thoughts, appreciating the wabi-sabi. Also noticed other LI mural posts here, but how about the Grant Pecoff Little Italy Sign mural on wall of Vici apartments parking entrance? I bought his original oil of this mural recently at ArtWalk. Love your email posts, felt it time to thank you!
