Inner Workings
 

The Mural:

“Inner Workings” at City Transmission Service, 51 Southside Avenue, is a Brushcan Custom Murals project featuring bold graphics of deconstructed auto and transmission parts. On the front of the building, you will find these parts creatively refashioned to form “Transmission City," a play on City Transmission’s name. Often commissioned to do murals for local businesses, Brushcan welcomes the challenge to create lasting works that artistically represent each client.
