Is an artist & muralist living in Raleigh, NC.
I painted these train bridge pillars in the spring of 24. With all 8 sides of the pillars, they total about 1600 feet square, and were painted with all spray paint. With this project I explored the irrepressible vigor and resilience found in nature, and it’s ever present juxtaposition with death.
In 2025 I painted two sides of Wildflower Hemp Co., in Raleigh, NC. I enjoyed the process for this project very much; playing with expressive linework was particularly fun. It’s about 600 square feet and created with spray paint and acrylic.
In the summer of 2025 I collaborated with a robotics and engineering teacher at Durham Academy, in North Carolina. This image created with all spray paint was meant to demonstrate how the natural world can inspire technological development.
Since its original painting in 2020, the walls on the west side of the Bolin Creek tunnel had degraded to due flooding and erosion. In 2025 I build wooden walls in front of the original facades and painted a new mural on them. This project was completed using all spray paint and reflects on juxtaposition of extreme vigor and resilience, and ever present decay and death found in nature.
In 2024 I painted several hundred feet of barrier wall leading up to the iconic Boylan Bridge in Raleigh, NC. This bridge connects one of Raleigh’s most historic neighborhoods with it’s vibrant and rapidly changing downtown area. My painting seeks to visually represent this link between past and present.
