WW2 Aviation Mural
WW2 AVIATION MURAL Like a lot of art/murals I do, I learned a lot from this one. Not only from the art aspect, but also from a historic point of view. I learned what kind of planes were used during WW2 and which ones were considered “cool”, like the P51 Mustangs, some with big teeth…

GASSERS’ GARAGE This mural I just finished (2011) is on the side of a barn here in Prescott. It was inspired by this giant sign the client had gotten from her recently deceased brothers’ estate. His last name was Gasser, and he had it made to hang in this huge garage he had for all…

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…
