This project was commissioned by St. Madeleline Sophie’s Center and Alley Cat Art to bring something bright and colorful to the City of El Cajon community members. The title of this mural Hope for the Flowers was inspired by the book written by Trina Paulus who said "In some way we

all hope that life can be transformed from whatever dreary aspect we are experiencing or sadness." The mural calls attention to the bright and beautiful flora and fauna around us as a way to transform the space and give a sense of joy to the residents, workers, and visitors of El Cajon.
