Colonnade

Location: Monterey Design (513 Monterey Ave), Los Gatos, CA
Size: 16' 8" H x 16' W
Date of Completion: June 1986
Mural Medium: Acrylic paint on panels

Columns and arches go back in time like the chambers of a nautilus shell. Like the ancient sea creature, we expand and set forth to new cultures or kingdoms, abandoning the previous ages as empty cavities of a shell.

UPDATE: This mural is looking for a new home! The current building is being destroyed so Colonnade is being removed and is available for purchase. Please contact us us if you're interested in making this splendid trompe l'oeil an eye-arresting attraction to your business or public space. It's painted on removable panels and will require an on-site installment.
