YULA Courtyard Mural

This mural was commissioned by YULA Girls High School in Los Angeles as part of a revamping of their campus celebrating a new chapter in their history. I worked with the incoming administration and staff to pick the right quote for the mural. We settled on this verse from Psalms 92:14, which also appears in the Kabbalat Shabbat service on Friday night: שתולים בבית ה׳ בחצרות אלהינו יפריחו, translated to mean "Planted in the house of Hashem, they will flourish in the courtyards of our God." We thought this was both a fun play on the location of this mural in the courtyard above a tree, as well as an encapsulation of the mission of the school to nurture the growth of young Jewish adults.
