I was commissioned to create a mural for Walmart store. The project brief called for three iconic local landmarks to be included in the art. The project is part of the Walmart Community Mural Program, a celebration of communities across America. Inspired by the community and together with every store manager, each mural reflects the local diversity and cultural references.
Mural size: 12x12.6 ft. Vinyl installation, created in Adobe Photoshop.
Client: Walmart | Location: Denton, TX | Agency: Now Art, LA
My vision for a mural in public display is to touch people and connect with them. I aim to inspire a sense of joy with vibrant colors and bold shapes, and I would like the community to feel represented in the artwork.
Drawing on my experience as a resident of Denton for more than ten years, my goal as the artist drawing their hometown was to capture Denton's community spirit in the mural.
Denton has lively art and music scenes. It's home to two universities and a community college, so there are plenty of families and college students around town.
The three women in the mural are definitely my favorites – each one unique, but they are clearly a close-knit group of friends.
