This amazing mural by Cassie Stover is painted on a door of a hotel. It is one of twenty one door murals painted for the Door Tour project in Automobile Alley. The mural is about two and a half feet wide, seven feet tall, just inside the border of the door frame.
The background is turquoise for the water, with the fish a variety of colors such as orange, yellow, green, grey. The fish are swimming in different directions, and the artist's statement on the plaque is a great read for understanding the inspiration for this piece of art.

Excuse Me, Pardon Me.
These fishes are going nowhere fast yet being very polite about it. "Excuse me, pardon me." I envision them having British accents. Carry on and be nice.
