“I think the part that most profoundly affected my daughter was working and learning from Audifax who has traveled the world practicing her craft, making a career out of creating beauty and helping people to express their inner thoughts and feelings in works of art. This project helped to bring my normally introverted child a little more out of her inner world and has helped her to share her gift with her community.”
Mural Projects For All Ages
I’m a street artist and muralist who works with communities to encourage personal growth through the act of creating. During our focused awareness we connect with ourselves and those around us in a way we may not otherwise during our busy lives. Through our project, just by picking up a brush and allowing the creative flow to take over, we find ourselves on a deeper level. The biggest lesson I teach is “don’t worry, we can paint over it!” Hidden talent is revealed, courage is found and friendships blossom. We learn something, either about ourselves or the importance of working together, all while making a beautiful mural we can be proud of that enriches our neighborhood.
Together we:
Create a design
Paint the project
Develop interpersonal skills
Share in serious and fun moments
Learn about each other
Grow
“People who don’t normally get along were helping each other, calmly, working together on the mural.”

Workshops
Live guided workshops are available online building up to the creation of the mural, providing a fun exploration of different artistic methods, as well as an introduction to their history. Some of the designs created sometimes contribute to the mural itself. They can be catered to available supplies and used for students to learn and continue to create projects on their own after the workshop, or in a classroom setting. We all connect with art in our own way, so these workshops expose us to different methods. Lets make some art together!
Workshop topic examples:
My Mantra
Ancient cultures and their art
Mandalas and temporary art
Abstract greats
Our legacy

“My goal is to empower every individual by invoking a human connection through mural projects. By working with youth, I aim to inspire an understanding that we pave our own path with each step we take and spark a desire to push ourselves towards what matters to each of us, individually, with the understanding our differences are what make this world interesting and beautiful. ”
