Welcome to The Living Mural blog.
The Living Mural is a detailed painting, which highlights
Historic Route 66 and San Bernardino County, California. The painting covers the North side of the original
McDonalds Museum in San Bernardino on Historic Route 66 (1398 N. E
St. San Bernardino, California).
The mural is the creation of Phil Yeh, Artist and founder of
“Cartoonists Across America and the World” (an organization that advocates and
promotes literacy). Phil has a vision
for this wonderful historic part of San Bernardino which includes an art colony
and a place for tourist and commuters to stop and converse. Frequently, Phil
can be found, alongside other painters, hard at work on the mural.
Since we started work on the mural, we’ve met people from
all over the world: Brazil, Austria, Canada, Great Britain, Scotland – to name
just a few. All this interest in San
Bernardino, Route 66 and the mural inspired us to create this blog as a way to
connect with our international friends and chart the progress of The Living
Mural. So, we will be posting videos and
pictures of the mural’s progress. If you
have pictures of your own, we encourage you to post them to The Living Mural’s
Facebook page.
