A couple of weeks ago I posted about progress being made on a giant mural called Better Days, located on the side wall of rororiri in downtown Walnut Creek, and it’s now finished! If you’re in the area definitely check it out and look for new artwork from artist Ally McKay on her Insta here.
Thanks to a reader for sending a photo of the Bullman with Bulldog sculpture that has been yarn bombed by Bedford Gallery Docent Adrienne Rogers. Previously masked Bullman with Bulldog photos are here and here.

Bright, new art murals made by local artists and Neiman Marcus employees are on display at the Neiman Marcus store in downtown Walnut Creek that was recently looted during recent protests according to this KCBS Radio article.
Last month we learned of the “masked bulldog“, so it’s only appropriate to see the masked bullman appear as well. Spotted in downtown Walnut Creek a couple of weeks ago.
