Renowned artist and illustrator Rafael Lopez painted this very colorful mural in Escondido during the summer. You might recognize his abstract style. The inspirational mural greets students arriving at the Palomar College Escondido Education Center.
(I took a long walk through Escondido early this morning . . . then Oceanside around noontime! I discovered all sorts of great street art and public art during my adventures. Stay tuned!)
The story behind this beautiful Rafael Lopez mural can be found in this article. I didn’t know the school has a comet as its mascot!
I like how images of life, growth and reaching skyward are important elements of the design.
