Floodwall Mural Pilot Project Waterfront Park
This mural is sponsored by a cooperative group consisting of Louisville Metro's COPA (Commission On Public Art), The Waterfront Development Corporation, and Metropolitan Sewer District.
The entrance will show Shippingport Island. The gateways will be painted to give the illusion of ornamental iron.
The other side of the wall shows a view from the river with Corn Island.

How we are bringing extea experiences and history to the project:
THE MURAL PAINTING
The majority of the mural is a modern landscape painting depicting the geography of the park - as if there were no buildings or people. The Ohio River runs through all scenes, symbolic of the tie that unites all Louisvillians.

Frankfort Ave Mural
This project, a reinterpretation in paint of a digital mixed media piece from my series of work: #KentuckyTheBeautiful.
The opportunity to create at this scale was a dream. The pandemic changed my routine, so I capitalized on the large stretch of time needed to hand paint a 500 square foot mural.
No stencil, no projection, no spray. The conditions called for hand drawing and painting.
