Three green carved medallions can be found on each side of the underpass where Magnolia Ave. passes under the train tracks (just south of 6184 Magnolia Ave, Riverside, CA). The artist responsible for the medallions is not identified. Several are shown below. Unfortunately, the medallions are frequently defaced and marked with graffiti.

On the side of Mission Tattoo (10220 Hole Ave, Riverside, CA) there is a mural of the monarch butterfly, angel wings, a heart, an orange and a partially completed raincross, Riverside's symbol. The artist is unidentified but it may have been painted by a group with the initials SSRMJ in 2019.
The aerie or lodge of the Fraternal Order of Eagles in Riverside (466 E La Cadena Dr, Riverside, CA) sports a couple of older murals showing an eagle, identifying the lodge and signifying the next exit. The artist is unidentified.
A new mural has joined some older murals at Martin Luther King Jr. High School (9301 Wood Rd, Riverside, CA). The more recent mural (first and last photos) shows a silhouette of MLK with his initials. It was painted by Murals for Schools led by lead artist Tom Seibert @muralsforschools. Apparently they will be painting more at the school in the future. The artists responsible for the other murals are unknown.
The Snack Shop (currently closed) at 11037 Hole Ave, Riverside, CA has a cartoonish mural on the door of its facade. It is signed but I am unable to read the signature. The tag is @Timoi.co which, based in its website, is an acronym for Trapped In My Own Imagination and Trusting In My Own Imagination. The artist was likely Susana De Leon who is now known as TIMOI.
