I recently stumbled upon an older mural featuring three large-eyed cartoon heads near the corner of University and Victoria Avenues (3844 Victoria Ave., Riverside, CA 92507). The mural is by Susana De Leon who goes by the name of Timoi. According to their website, Timoi is an acronym that stands for Trapped In My Own Imagination and Trusting In My Own Imagination.
