We Are Heineken
This 24' x 6' mural was painted for the Dallas Heineken office. I used acrylic paint and featured various icons from the company's unique history.
Uptown Dallas
Good Fortune, Part 1
This mural was commissioned by Uptown Dallas, Inc. It is located at the Blackburn entrance to the Katy Trail. It's already gotten quite a bit of attention, gaining more than 1,800 likes on the Uptown Dallas, Inc instagram page.
Good Fortune, Part 2
The second part of the series, painted on the opposite side of the underpass.
Lyft
Billy Bob's Texas
In honor of the World's Largest Honky Tonk, Billy Bob's Texas, I turned this 75-foot Lyft pickup point into a giant belt complete with a huge Lyft belt buckle.
The mural featured iconic architecture from the historical Stockyards district in Fort Worth surrounding Billy Bob's.

This mural is located on the right side of the service road when exiting Sylvan from I-30W.
Smart City
A Space to be Yourself
Dallas, TX
Located at 1619 N Hall St, I painted this photo-op ready mural commissioned by Smart City Apartment Locating. The company integrated the mural with their 5th-anniversary instagram marketing for customers to pose with the mural and share online.
Nowhere, Texas
Double Vision
I painted this 20-foot portrait at Nowhere, Texas, a biergarten-style entertainment venue opening in West Dallas in summer 2018..
Wal-Mart
King Tex
April 2018
I sketched the skyline from my point of view in Deep Ellum and gave Big Tex King Kong-like proportions. The mural also features Atlas Obscura and Sam Walton's Ercoupe 4150C historical plane arriving to the city skyline to commemorate the arrival of Wal-Mart's DFW Technology Office.
I'm Driven To Buck the System
February 2018
Wal-Mart technology office in Plano, Texas, commissioned me to create a mural of a bold quote by Sam Walton. I came up with the concept of a giant circuit board featuring the quote.
Common Desk
Geometric
July 2018
Death Before Decaf
January 2018
I painted this design for the Common Desk in Fort Worth as part of their grand opening event.
Fiction Coffee
Staghorn Ferns
January 2018
Deck the Coffee shop was transformed into Fiction Coffee in January 2018, and the red wall with my December Christmas mural was painted over in black. I met with the Fiction team to understand their vision for the shop's rebrand. Together we came up with this Staghorn Fern concept, inspired by the unique plants inside the shop.
The mural was painted with five colors of exterior paint and spray paint. I came up with this system for blending the colors and carrying them with me in a bucket while up on the ladder.
I used chalk to free-hand the design and then fill it in.
The design wrapped around the side of the building.
I painted the mural over three days, with live painting as part of the shop's grand opening event.
It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
December 2017
I was commissioned to paint a mural on the brick wall outside of Dallas's first holiday pop-up coffee shop, Deck the Hall Street. I painted the mural in one day as part of the shop's overnight transformation into the pop-up.
The mural was heavily shared on social media, with many visitors using the #deckthehallstreet hashtag on Instagram.
The mural became a holiday destination for Dallas's Instagram influencers, both human and canine.
I also provided hand-lettering for the shop to draw attention to the shop's offerings.
The mural was featured in the Dallas Morning News.
Embark
Logo Mural
This mural was designed by Creative Cave and painted by me. We transformed their new suite with a bright mural featuring two large logos.
