A very unique and purpose filled mural is located along the 101 Freeway approaching the Downtown Los Angeles area. Its in an underpass by the Hollywood Bowl and was painted in 1987 by Russell Carlton (who died of AIDS) in collaboration with the (at the time) just organized AIDS Project Los Angeles... now known as ADLA Health. Its long been an antagonistic thorn in the side for the Whitley Neighborhood Historical District because the artwork and its purpose were held in such high regard but it was covered with graffiti.

🌻🐝🌻🐝 Fans, check out Colleen Gnos' current exhibit of sea-life gems. LOVE that 7' tall #honeybee. Very cool final result, Colleen! You & your #ArtConservation Pal, Scott M. Haskins must be happy to finish your 2012 mural "Gazing Into Infinity's" enhancements. Wow, Colleen! Jim Smith of the Woodland Daily Democrat wrote a great story about the enhancement you've just finished for your 2012 #mural "Gazing Into Infinity," with Scott M. Haskins offering an expert hand with #ArtConservation help!  🌻🐝🌻🐝 Nice description here... Gnos said her paintings tend to be narrative, especially her murals. “‘Gazing Into Infinity’ shows the story of a hardworking man connected to his farm. That industrious lifestyle reflects families who live and farm in Woodland, Dixon, and other California regions, working their own land,” she stated. Big Thanks to Jim Smith & Grow West for sharing this artful story... .  The 3D bee is sooooo cool looking. As well as the bright coloring. And the picture frame bings it all together. NICE JOB.👏👏👏



And for your CA Friends & Family, here's today's 6:30am Good Day Sacramento TV interview with Ashley Williams getting final Colleen Gnos Art mural updates --- a big deal if you live in Woodland, Winters, Dixon & surrounding areas. Enjoy! 🐝🎨🐝



https://gooddaysacramento.cbslocal.com/.../4131690.../...  🐝🎨🐝 Terrific to see Colleen Gnos & acclaimed art conservationist, Scott M. Haskins talking about what they're doing in Woodland, CA's high temps today, with final touches on mural enhancements to 2012's 'Gazing Into Infinity!’ BIG THANKS to Jim Smith of The Woodland Daily Democrat for the interview! 🐝🎨



Wouldn't it be cool to have Colleen making #murals up in the air in San Luis Obispo County? Thanks for supporting all our muralists & public art,  Team Larry 😎
