On Wednesday, April 1st Bonnie Preston led a rambler hike to Palo Alto to see 10 of Greg Brown’s Murals in downtown Palo Alto. These humorous murals are painted on the walls or ceilings of buildings. Greg grew up in Palo Alto and studied drawing, painting and printmaking in London. He painted the life size picture of a spy in a trench coat which was so realistic that it scared a city official in 1975. The city then commissioned many other works of art which delighted residents.
