Denny Dog Park Mural

Dog Mural

Did you know dogs can see color? It’s true. They just can’t see as many shades as humans. Which means everyone can enjoy the multi-hued constellation of friendly canines overlooking one of the most popular dog parks in the city. The mural is a collaboration between artist Cern, Art is Fun and the Seattle Parks Department. What used to be a nondescript wall hemming in one of the few off-leash areas in downtown is now a vibrant visual identity for the park.
