CURRENT MISSION

Painting murals on every continent

ABOUT ME

I paint large murals that aim to beautify spaces and create atmospheres over existing urban walls. With mural art, I intend to reinsert the natural world, visually, into our urban societies. One of my goals in producing murals is to bring images of sustainability and hope to communities around the world through the education of art, and local ecosystems by representing flora, fauna and human history in a contemporary context. I feel that being in nature allows people to relax and I hope to create that effect and opportunity visually.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep moving, breathing and think as much as you can.
