Diversity Mural Orlando
I was happy to create two hearts for this mural, along with more than 1000 from people all over the world! It stands as a message of hope and support for the LGBTQ community and anyone who feels marginalized or lives in fear of hate and violence simply because of who they are. Dedicated to the victims of the 2016 Pulse Nightclub shooting.
Rugby School Mural
8' x 4' mural created by special education students aged 6-18 during a 2 week workshop I taught at the Rugby School in Wall, New Jersey. Students created individual 6" x 6" mosaics that were joined together to form a mural that was permanently installed on an interior wall of the school. It was a wonderful experience!
My contribution to the Scrap Quilt for the Patch House Project.
