Monday Mural

 I'm linking up at Monday Mural 

March 2025 - San Diego CA

Murals found in 2014 in Balboa Park.


Liberty Station
By the time it closed in 1997, the Naval Training Center had seen over two million men and women pass through its gates on their way to becoming sailors. In subsequent years the area has transformed into Liberty Station, a rich and diverse mixed-use community that honors its naval origins.

This 2,535-sqft mural located between Barracks 14 + 15 at Liberty Station celebrates the city we call home with a collage of locally inspired images, including people, marine life, and flowers.









Greetings from US Naval Training Station | By Greetings Tour
Victor Ving and photographer Lisa Beggs — the duo behind Greetings Tour — developed this piece to celebrate Liberty Station’s history as the Naval Training Center while greeting visitors to the destination. It really feels like you’re living in a postcard — just go to the other side and see the updated back of this mural.




The painting on an arched walkway next to The Lot depicts what Villaseñor — better known as Panca — describes as “a quintessential San Diego summer day.”

“I captured the spirit,” she said. “What I am getting from people is the mural is very harmonious and positive and joyful. … It’s exactly what I was going for.”

Panca, who was born in the United States to Mexican parents, emigrated to Tijuana in 2004. As a binational, bilingual and bicultural artist, she intertwines both cultures in her work.
