This is a small work of art which raises more questions than it can answer: why are the fish swimming (flying?) through the air ? Why are the birds pink, and are they supposed to be crows ? What did the restaurant think about the how the mural turned out, did they commission it to relate to their business (somehow?) or is just an artistic decoration ?
The mural is painted directly on the outside wall and framed with some tacked-on wooden molding which is painted yellow to match the kitchen-side door and eaves of the restaurant's building.
