It was a busy summer of murals for me! Oakton Elementary, a charming school in Evanston, Illinois, had me paint a 40 foot mural in their cafeteria. They were remodeling a section of the school and the principal was so excited to have a mural be part of the new interior identity. Look closely at the sun, it was a labor of love! I painted 50 action words relating to inspiration and education into the pattern inside the sun. I’m realizing that photos don’t quite capture the essence of a giant mural, so I try to post a little bit of my process so you can see how art transforms an environment.
