A few weeks ago, I’d reported rather sadly that the cloud mural was gone, the one that formerly graced the Public Storage building at Mission and Duboce. Gone after I don’t know how many years, because I first saw it at least 20 years ago.
So today, I’m delighted to report … it’s coming back! Yesterday, when I drove by there, I saw that a couple of panels had been repainted. So today I went back and got a photograph.
I stopped by to ask who the artist was and who was responsible for this. The clerk, busy with a customer, didn’t know and didn’t have time to investigate it. “But when it’s finished the artist will put his name on it,” he said.
So I’ll have to keep an eye out. If anyone knows, please do leave a comment.
