Thanks to Brandy for sending the photo! That’s West Seattle muralist Desmond Hansen, working today on his newest signal-box portrait. It’s on the southwest corner of 35th and Trenton, and in case you don’t recognize the subject, we noticed in passing that the north side of the box now identifies him – Portland drummer Joe Plummer, known for his work with bands including Modest Mouse. (Added – commenter points out Plummer has Portland roots but calls West Seattle home!)
Desmond just keeps thrilling. What a joyful mission he is on, bringing us up-close experiences with some of our finest neighbors.
Not only Portland native but Arbor Heights resident and organizer of pickle ball.
Thank you; didn’t know that! The background I looked up didn’t even mention Seattle. One more on the West Seattle rock-star list.
Woo hoo!! You’re welcome! The blog was my first thought 😊😊 Thanks for all the great reporting you do!
I noticed it straightaway this AM, it’s an amazing piece, it fairly glows. Is it possible his talents even keep growing?!
Sorry, comment time is over.
