A mural in downtown Alpine, Texas tells local history through the brush of Stylle Read — an artist who came not from the Big Bend region, but from Cleburne, in North Texas. Public murals like this one show how Texas communities often look beyond their own borders to document themselves. Sometimes an outside eye sees a place most clearly. #Texas #PublicArt #AlpineTexas #TexasHistory
