Beautiful Inside and Out I'm chipping away at a large project in 90° & 100° weather. There are several exterior walls of a beauty college. I'm very happy with it so far and so are my clients and the students of California Beauty College! The theme is a bit of California and a bit of 80's. I can't wait to finish the 2 big walls and show you but here are some of the areas I've done so far. We dropped a new coffee offering and its a high rated Ethiopia with some nice blueberry notes! This is a...

My latest project is one that I would really like to do more of! Camper trailers and RV’s. It hit me as I was painting this project…I like doing these. It’s a manageable size. It’s mobile and tons of people will get to see it. And lastly, it’s outdoor focused themes, which I love. The owners are friends of mine and I’ve camped with them a few times. Its usually in a sea of boring light gray RVs. They actually got tons of comments just from having a Goonies flag and colored lights to help find...

Spring is just about here and it's usually my busiest season. After doing a lot of trout fishing last year I've been thinking about painting fish. Thinking back, I’ve mostly painted sea turtles as far as underwater animals. But who doesn't like sea turtles? My partner and I just roasted a fresh batch of Honduras coffee beans on 3/3/25. He really likes it as espresso where I enjoy it as a pour over. Although lately, I've made some delicious latte's with raw/unpasteurized milk. Order a bag...

Fuzios Restaurant wanted the mural vibes of downtown Modesto, ca to flow through their dining area. They were open to my favorite subjects and style. I had fun with these 2 walls! Fuzios also hosted a swanky artists reception for DoMo Walls including custom drinks named and inspired by all the 2024 mural artists. My latest small batch coffee is a Honduras medium roast and I slapped the new Macaw mural art on the packaging. I only sell these beans to people in person with US cash… Or do I?...

There’s a very cool spot for teens to hang out in Swift Current, Saskatchewan called The Center. There’s a lot of fun stuff to do, but they needed some cool art. So myself and two friends went and added some fun visuals to the walls. I painted a full body tiger leaping this time as well as a Prairie Lily, aka tiger lily, which is the Saskatchewan flower. My friend Jeff also arranged and assisted me with a rooftop mural of a baby moose on North Railway Ave in Medicine Hat, Alberta. I’ve...

I just finished a huge tiger mural in Shaunavon Saskatchewan for South West Mural Fest. This is Year 1 for this Fest and an obvious success right out the gate. Both the experienced muralist and less experienced did amazing murals and the community is all compliments and appreciation. My new friend Andrew did a great job curating and we’ve been sharing notes and ideas the whole time about how to run a great festival. For me, the easiest way to say it is… Nurture the community to become fans of...

Quick house keeping: My emails will now be coming from "[email protected]" to avoid spam issues. Please add it to your contacts. I love coffee. My favorite is usually a Guatemala bean with chocolaty notes(a subtle natural flavor). My favorite locally roasted bean is Nox by Volente which is part of the Modesto Gospel Mission. Its actually from Chiapas, Mexico which is on the north border of Guatemala. When the guys at Volente asked for a mural on the front of their roasting spot I was...

My favorite local bird is the central valley magpie. It’s unique to other magpies with it’s yellow beak. Outside of central California, magpies have black beaks. They are super smart and can be trained like ravens and crows. There are tons at my house and they seem to have a pack or family. Most have a very long tail which I believe grows with age. The long tail reminds me of a tropical bird. The black and white seemed like a good fit for a wedding venue, so when Chris from Hope Commons...
