PUBLIC ART

A collection of mural and installation projects from my years working with local non-profits, ArtWorks Cincinnati and Black Art Speaks.

My main responsibilities included acrylic painting, problem solving, and acting as a project representative during press interviews.

BLACK LIVES MATTER MURAL

This piece stands as a reminder to the city of Cincinnati, through the support of the Black Lives Matter Movement and spreading the message of equality.

Black Art Speaks board member Tamia Saunders brought me onto this project as her assistant to help turn their vision of the letter K design to life.

 
 
 
 

BOYS HOPE GIRLS HOPE LENTICULAR MURAL

This lenticular mural highlights both B.B. Riverboats, a historical Cincinnati treasure, as well as Boys Hope Girls Hope, a non-profit organization.

BHGH's mission is to assist disadvantaged youth by preparing them for post-secondary education and a productive life, in an effort to break the cycle of poverty.

 
 
 
 

IT’S YOUR THING MURAL

As a part of the Cincinnati Legends Series, this mural pays homage to the local soul-funk music group, The Isley Brothers.

The bold typographic design expresses the voice of the neighborhood. Community engagement was a large part of this project, in an effort to give citizens an avenue for connecting with each other and cultivating a strong solidarity for their neighborhood.

 
 
 
 

DREAMING BLUES MURAL

As an accompaniment to the It's Your Thing mural, this addition to the Cincinnati Legends Series showcases the beauty of miss Mamie Smith. She was a vaudeville singer, actress, dancer, & actress who recorded the first African-American blues vocals in 1920.

 
 
 

TO OAKLEY WITH LOVE MURAL

This mural spanning the entire entrance wall of a newly built Kroger in the city. The bold addition was a gift to the neighborhood of Oakley, an area overflowing with small businesses, creatives, and a friendly community.

 
 
 
 

PROST to CINCINNATI INSTALLATION

This installation adds to a series paying homage to the city’s rich German heritage and thriving brewery industry that is alive throughout Over-The-Rhine, and many parts of the city. This piece utilizes classic brewery motifs featuring recycled bourbon barrels & painted hops leaves.
