Public Art

Kid-friendly and community-fueled, my murals can be found in schools, hospitals, libraries and on the street. See full list below.

I helped the  Rosewood Initiative -- and 100+ volunteers -- complete the Rosewood Community Mural in 11 days. The original design was done in Sharpie marker by Antwoine Thomas; video created by Dave Schrenk. 
I love projects that intersect at useful and compelling, and much of my public art has a secondary purpose. Whether it's distracting hospital patients, providing direction in libraries, or simply bringing the community together, murals can create lasting positive change.
