Floral Painted Electrical Box in Front of Riverside Community Hospital

The electrical box in front of Calgary Presbyterian Church and adjacent to Riverside Community Hospital on Magnolia Ave. (4495 Magnolia Ave, Riverside, CA) has recently been painted in attractive floral patterns by Ekaterina Orlovie @orlovie.  I believe that it is the 3rd or 4th that she has painted on Magnolia between downtown and the Magnolia center.

Portraits and other Miscellaneous Works of Art at Riverside County's Victor Miceli Law Library

As indicated previously, the Victor Miceli Law Library of Riverside County (3989 Lemon St, Riverside, CA) has a nice collection of art.  Below are photos of their portraits and other miscellaneous works of art. Again, because of the glass protecting the paintings, some of the photos have a lot of glare and reflections and as a result, some have not been not posted.  Photos of most of the art collection with the artists' names and titles at the library can also be found on the library website.

Riverside-themed Pictures in Riverside County's Victor Miceli Law Library

Victor Miceli Law Library of Riverside County (3989 Lemon St, Riverside, CA) has a nice collection of art; many of the paintings, drawings and photographs show the Riverside County Courthouse and other local sites.  Below are photos of those showing local scenes. The paintings are protected by glass which, because of the glare and reflections, make it hard to get really good photographs.  Photos of most of the art collection with the artists' names and titles at the library can also be found on the library website.
