amy ruppel is my artwork idol. i don’t think she’s ever made a piece i didn’t love and this mural is just the icing on top of the cake. amy drove down to san francisco to paint this mural on the wall of rena and lisa’s new rare device shop. i cannot wait to see this in person. great work, amy!

[if you're in portland stop by the grand opening of amy and her husband randy's new restaurant cava tonight (5339 SE foster road, porland, OR, 503-206-8615). it's going to be fantastic!]

Just when I thought my mural was good. Lol. That is gorgeous! Congrats Rena and Lisa and also to Amy and Randy on their new restaurant. So many exciting things happening these days.

Is that an old fire alarm thingy at the top of the mural? If so, Amy did a brilliant job of working that in! I can’t wait to see it in person (along with all of the other cool stuff Lisa and Rena have planned!).

that is indeed an old fire alarm thingy. our building is 101 years old this year and there are lots of funny things like that in the space. we hated it at first but now it’s our favorite thing in the room, thanks to the fabulous Amy!

If you are ever in Portland Amy did a great mural in one of the rooms at The new Ace Hotel.
