Alleyway Mural of Young Mexican-American Woman

One of the central murals along the alleyway just off of Loma Vista Street near Ottawa Ave. in the Eastside area of Riverside (1948 Loma Vista Street) was painted by Andrea Lopez @art.by.andrealopez.  It is a lovely mural that features a painting of a woman and combines images from the artist's roots in Mexico and those of her life in Riverside. It is entitled, "Hija del Maiz" or Daughter of Corn. The artist narrates a nice reel that gives some background to the mural on the Eastside Arthouse Instagram page @eastsidearthouse. She recently received a fellowship from the California Arts Council which was spotlighted in a Raincross Gazette article.
