“I chose to show a classic DOES style with a tranquil colour choice, inspired by the images that stuck with me after our day trip to the Grand Canyon. I enjoyed creating this last wall as the style I showed here originates from my graffiti background and I always enjoy going back to my roots.” DOES * About Vegas.

Working around the clock in extreme circumstances to finish four walls in twelve days for project @muraloasis.

That’s about the summary of my trip to the Mojave Desert, Las Vegas. Mural Oasis is the creation of a large museum-like gallery of 126 murals throughout the shopping mall ‘The Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas’. Around thirty artists will show their skills and attend the project in three phases. This was Phase II. What intrigues me about the project is that street art is served to a wide public in a very easy accessible way. I notice that the artform is becoming more and more accepted and projects like this give artists a stage for their work in a prominent location without compromising their work.

Styles varied from graffiti to realistic and more graphic. The organization of the project by @themuralco was superb! * 📸 Luke Shirlaw
