1133 South Boulevard, Oak Park, Illinois. 150 Foot x 10 Foot mural designed and painted by myself. Spray Paint and Latex paint. The Bird in the first Image is a Red Headed Woodpecker, which is local to Illinois & is threatened by climate change. The second bird is the Downy Woodpecker. This mural is a continuation of my collaboration with @audubonsociety & #audubonmuralproject to help bring awareness to species threatened by climate change and to envision a solution. I would like to participate in creative urban planning to protect the threatened species we share space with. Last year in April I got a phone call asking if I was interested in painting a mural in Oak Park and if I would provide a price quote and a design. After 6 months of designs, contracts, insurance and emails, I was given the green light to paint October 17th 2019 in Chicago. The second day of painting it was so cold and windy I thought I would definitely freeze to death. I painted until Mid November and had to hold off until the spring time. So I went to paint in Miami, New York, Paris, Barcelona, Cairo, (<-pre cove) Miami. I got back to Chicago May 1st 2020 to finish up the project. The world definitely changed a lot during this creation of this project, a lot of the painting took on a whole new meaning in my mind. I worked almost everyday & finished up around August 6th 2020. We just had the unveiling August 18th. This is probably the most time I have ever spent on a project and I’m extremely grateful for the experience. I was definitely overwhelmed at times. I am feeling pretty accomplished to have finished this piece. I really put my heart into it and I hope you like it 🌸🐝. I created the design out of hundreds of photos I took in the neighborhood. I use photoshop to collage the images into a cohesive design and I project the design onto the wall. I then freestyle the details while also referring to my design. I have lots of stories about this piece, too many to tell🤫 hit me up if you have any questions. #mural #idcarthouse #idecoratecities #stiky #rustiky #spraypaint #art #streetart #oakpark #painting #audubonsociety #chicago #publicart #graffiti #urbanart #urbanartist #IDC (at Chicago metropolitan area) https://www.instagram.com/p/CERkEi4JKCR/?igshid=1r9rk99nid25s
