Overview Of The Mural
An overview shot of the "The California Princess" mural, a part of Sacramento's Wide Open Walls Art Festival. It is meant to resemble the famous Princess Leia of Star Wars. but instead, in the words of the artist, "California is popular, it's the quintessence of pop. It's famous all over the world for its cinema industry, its music, its sense of freedom. But, behind this mask of freedom and innovation, it has a dark side."
