The underpass at Riverwalk Garage Downtown Ft. Lauderdale just got spruced up with a Florida Panthers themed mural at 150 SE 2nd Street. In just 4 days we scaled this 20 x 34 foot wall on this busy street to help market Broward County’s amazing hockey team. More to come!
I was recently commissioned to spruce up Riverwalk Garage at 150 SE 2nd St downtown Ft Lauderdale this summer with some colorful artwork. Partnering with artist John May, I covered 2 adjoining walls (& ceilings) with colorful stained glass-like fragments of colorful fragments overlapped by origami birds in flight.
As summer winds down, I am preparing to gather some talented Broward teen artists for a September art show “Land + Sea” at Pompano’s historic Sample-McDougald House.

The City of Hollywood hosted a beautiful environmental art festival at the Marine Environmental Education Center right on the beach last Saturday, April 21st.

Here is the chalk mural I created from 12-5pm next to other installation artists and sculptors.
