Dreams on Pause

Clyde Thompson explains that Dreams on Pause was painted during the first lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic. “Though everyone was in a panic, I wanted to paint something that suggested that these times are an opportunity to reflect and reset,” Thompson shares. Describing the mural, “I painted this man laid out in a relaxed state using his basketball as a pillow. You’ll see an arrow shot through the basketball, signifying his love for the game. He had been grinding for a long time to achieve his dream of being a professional basketball player. However, now he gets an opportunity to sit back and smell the flowers.” That’s a message we can all understand right now. The more you know. You’ll see this 65’ x 20’ mural best when you drive east along Southern Avenue. It’s on the south side of the road near the car wash west of Mill Avenue.
