SHARE THE ROAD Oops, I forgot to update my webpage right after I finished this mural, one of my favorites, here in Prescott! I just realized it so I’m doing it now. This mural is on the High Gear Bicycle Shop on Sheldon here where I live in Prescott. It is based on the cartoon [...]

WASHINGTON SCHOOL RIPARIAN MURAL This MURAL was a trip to do. Last year it was supposed to be done but was abruptly canceled. The Highland Center was in the process of obtaining grants to have a large riparian themed mural painted on the side of the school by the area where the Highland Center conducted [...]

CHALK MURALS IN PRESCOTT! This is at the second annual “Chalk It Up”!  I didn’t know about the one last year because we had just moved here, but when I heard about this one, I called my ever-so talented and beautiful friend Jen and invited her over for the weekend for it. I’d been trying [...]

So I’m working on some really different stuff lately.  It is inspired by a potential job coming up (hope, hope).  Here is a sample image, with more to come.  Whether I get the commission or not, I think I will play with this for a while…It’s good to stretch!  This piece is good too because [...]

  Julie was selected by the Grand Canyon Association to be their first South Rim Artist in Residence, a program that had been going on for several years on the North rim and other National Parks, but only recently started on the South. She selected as the sight of her mural the Shrine of the [...]

LEARJET MURAL    Look at the tiny light switch on the left to get an idea of the size of this mural.  This jet was photographed while it was on the ground from a high vantage point to get the angle, then superimposed with a few tricks for realism, over some clouds I photographed on [...]

Y This is one part of a wall of 3 for a small mural I did for a women’s/children’s homeless shelter clinic for Phoenix Children’s Hospital.  I love those guys because they saved the life not once but twice of my husband’s sweet son Scott.  Our family will always be grateful to them for what [...]

l This first mural was one I did on my own house.  My daughter and I were out digging up the latest crop of burned plants we had attempted to plant in hellish Phoenix.  Sweet Katie said  in her cute little voice, “you know Mommy, we can’t grow them, but we CAN paint them!”…an idea [...]

The images for these murals were before the age of digital.  I wish I’d taken more pics of the work I did, but just wasn’t thinking!  I did manage a few photos though.  Here’s a few! This one was quite awesome to do!  It’s done with CANS OF SPRAY PAINT, plus a power sprayer for [...]

THIS IS THE LEFT SIDE OF THE MURAL.  Scroll down for the right side.  There were also other elements of the mural on the side walls and such.  Someday, I’ll figure out how to just post a movie of the murals I do so you can see the whole thing at once!  Till then….here’s some [...]
