The Rabbit and the Rooster

 

I've been searching the internet to try to find some information about this mural that I saw on north 7th Street in Phoenix.  I wasn't able to find a thing. With that bright pink background, you can't miss it.  It's a very unusual scene with the rabbit  riding on the back of the rooster.  The rabbit is holding a glass of something and on the glass is a "K" and a heart.  I thought that might be a clue to the mural but searching K heart and KO didn't give me any results.  So, it will have to remain a mystery.  At least it's an appealing mystery.  

UPDATE: One of my readers found an old article that sheds some light on this mural.  It looks like it originally had a black background and it was supposed to be for a restaurant/cocktail lounge that was scheduled to open January 17, 2020.  You can see the link here.  I'm not sure the bar is still there  I'll have to do some checking.

Taking part in Monday Murals.

Would be cool to see a somewhat cropped version of this, with only the great mural.

That bright pink would catch your eye. Wonder why some street artist don’t sing their work? Janey

I wonder if it's an unfinished sign. Some text might eventually appear on that pink field to the right?

I love it, Sharon. That pink is a wonderful background for the images.

Amy said...

it's unusual and fun but the explanation does make sense.

Ah ha! Cocktails.

The pink background commands a lot more attention than the black background. Please let us know if Cock-n-Tails is still there when you find out.
