Mural with Shabazz High School

Herbiery Taproom

The theme was to be a Wisconsin sunset with Savannah Oak trees, using the colors of the labels. The design is a beautiful and warm image, inviting beer drinkers (and non- they have NA craft cocktails, too) into the now completely renovated Herbiery Taproom.

Riding Waves Mural in Monona WI

This mural is a reminder to honor wherever you’re at emotionally, and respect these “waves” are what we all go through.

"Love is a Legacy" Toki Mural Update

I was called back to collaborate with the students of Toki Middle School to redesign the sun in our 8th grade legacy mural. The rising sun as an image of renewal, should represent peace in all of us, so we shifted it to something with an uplifting feel. It was great to work with the students again, adding the final layer to the mural, evolving it.
