Vintage City-Mural Art: Another mural completed where we painted scenes of what city life was like back in the 50’s and 60’s.

This mural was painted on the outside of a restaurant in the historic downtown area of Riverside, California. It was an interesting painting experience because of the two-story building and the ledge we had to paint it on. The client wanted us to replicate how the city looked back in the 50s and 60s, which were his growing up years. This was an enjoyable project for us because we liked recreating history with our art! The city murals we do are always fun to do. This mural turned out to be a great success!

I came across some old photos of a mural in the city I think is worth sharing. It is titled Vintage City and it appeared on the side of the former Kresge store on the corner of Central and Northern in downtown (see photo above).

I had heard that this mural was created by a group of students from the Art Institute of Chicago. It appears to be true, as I found an article online with a picture of one of the artists working on this mural. When I saw this mural, I did not realize it was done by students, but thought it was done by local artisans. The only reason I know differently is what I’ve just told you.

More about this mural: The artist who painted it was Susan Dergachevsky who passed away in 2003 at age 56 following a battle with breast cancer. She went to DuSable High School and then studied at Northwestern University and the Art Institute of Chicago before moving to New York City where she worked as an artist for Hallmark Cards, CBS Records, and others. During her time in New York she worked on numerous murals and other art projects around the city, including another one for Kresge’s department store in Harlem. Her work has been featured at various galleries including Gallery A

The mural was a very large scale painting that used the entire side of a building to depict the community it was painted in.

We enjoy painting murals and we are proud of our murals located in the heart of the city. Our murals, which are a great conversation piece and a unique method of advertising, have been completed on time, within budget and have received favorable comments from thousands of customers.
