A Monterey County man who was told to get his boat out of public view did as the city asked, but then he had an artistic epiphany. In response to the city ordinance, Etienne Constable built a fence and had his neighbor paint a photo-realistic version of the boat on the fence. Pictures of the mural have since gone viral online. Constable mentioned that in 2023 he received a letter from the city instructing him to build a 6-foot fence to conceal his boat from public view.

The owner and the artist who made the painting happen were profoundly surprised at how big of a reaction the painting received. 'The reaction is extremely more than we expected, and we were just tickled about it. It's pretty cool,' Constable said.Artist Hanif Panni, known for his murals around the central coast, strongly advocates for art in public spaces and loves creating such works.
