Mooney Museum Mural, Day 3A

First, the name of the museum is Tulare County Museum, and it is in Mooney Grove. This is a county park. Just wanted to clarify, because the title of my blog posts about this mural make it sound as if the museum is called the “Mooney Museum”. I just like alliteration.

This is how the mural looked when I arrived on Day #3.

The brighter orange is poppies, the lighter orange is fiddleneck, and the lightest yellow is mustard. (You’re welcome – I know you were wondering.)

There were a few details left to add to finish this one.Better.Best.

There is too much to show you on today’s post, so Day 3B will appear tomorrow.

  1. Are they going to trim whatever that bush is that sticks up in the lower right corner? It’s very distracting from your beautiful mural.

    • Hi Marjie, I don’t know what to expect in terms of landscaping. (I’m advocating for ferns at the base of the Sequoia trees.)

  2. But, but, but . . . since this is a museum, instead of the wind turbines shouldn’t there be smudge pots??

    • Sharon, maybe there are smudge pots but they are shorter than the trees so they wouldn’t be visible. When I was a kid living in a house in an orange grove, we had both ways of protecting the fruit.
