What she had to say!
THAT’S A WRAP! Such an incredible week being a part of this year’s RenArtWlk and bringing this piece to life. Connecting with this community and the crew of amazing artists left my heart feeling overwhelmingly inspired and full—and wanting to paint a lot more walls.
I learned so much, I’m excited to keep evolving my process.
‘What Fuels You’ — 8 very full days, all brushwork, acrylic on masonry. When I found out I was doing the outside of an auto business I knew I wanted to incorporate a vintage car, the owners were hoping for one too so it worked out! I love bringing in purpose and symbolism when I can, choosing flowers native to the area to bring in the balance of nature and when I found out owners Deana and Troy Rule had 8 kids, I painted 8 gears for each knowing the importance of family and how they keep you going. The plate number is the date they opened, and ever since seeing Bottle Rocket, any early 70’s Broncos make me all googley eyed. Icing on top was finding out a 72 is one of their daughter’s favorite cars and Troy loves Fords. It’s so inspiring to see businesses launch after the year we’ve had, couldn’t be happier creating something to help them celebrate that.
Big thank you to @camers1sf for all you do and curating and inviting me to be a part of this and @talkingwallsart @crysmo @discoverjaspercounty @embers_station @artistryanp @lindseymhp @redhottjm Rule Auto Care for their part in making it such a special week!
