The Amazing, Fantastical, Beautiful Oury Park Mural
Sometimes you don't describe. You just look. Grab your camera and head to 600 St. Marys Road. It's on the northeast corner of St. Mary's Road and the I-10 frontage road. Here's the map to the mural, just don't forget your camera.




Artists: Josh Sarantitus and William Wilson
There are more photos in Ooh... Ahh... More Oury Park.
UPDATE (October 6, 2014): The mural is made from mosaic tiles, and they're falling off. Have a look at the 2014 version of the last photo above.

There may be no better visual treat in one location than in Tucson's Oury Park. From the Oury Park Recreation Center to the massive wall mural separating the park area from Interstate 10, it's a colorful treat and a place to picnic and play as well. Better yet, click on the map to the mural.
600 W. St. Marys Rd.
Oury Recreation Center is located at 600 St. Marys Road.
Title: Untitled
Artists: Antonio Pazos and Estevan Mireles with neighborhood youth.
Update (October 13, 2014): The mural has been repainted, and we have eight new photos... as well as a few older photos. They're in today's entry, Oury Community Center repainted.
