Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Greeley, Colorado and Manteca, California

Since January of 2018, we have painted two new murals and restored one that was damaged in a flood. The most recent is a mural about WW1, in Manteca, California, a town celebrating their 100th year, which coincides with 1918, when Americans joined WW1. The second is a giant pointilist mural in Greeley, Colorado, where I attended college. The restoration was in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, also known as “The Cereal Capital of the World.” I have worked in all three places before, so I had the lucky chance to visit and work with many wonderful friends and family. I also had the blessing of meeting many new friends; of trying a new style (pointilism), and seeing many new places. Thanks to Dómhnal Ó Bric, Bob O Cathail, The Díseart, Andrea Scott, Clint Ball, Kim Snyder, Susan Herold, Frank Garza, Ambrette Gilkey, Karen Kropp and family crew, Suzanne and Warm Hugs gang, Terry Pasquini, Dave Gordon and his installation crew, Charleen Carrol and many others for every moment and idea you put into these projects! Thanks also to Adam McLaughlin and family for the surprise Mother’s Day commission. It was such a joy to see you and meet the little ones!
