California Dreaming Wall

Designed by artist Ricardo Gonzalez, this phrase was popularized by the Mamas & the Papas with their hit song of the same title has become synonymous with the California lifestyle. There are no pictures, simply "California Dreaming" written out in a giant, white, casual cursive font. Set against a violet and pink background that evokes an L.A. sunset, the entire picture-less mural somehow represents all that the Golden State radiates. (Submitted by Teresa Ellison)
