Here are some clips and pics of my artist residency I completed at Mirante do Arvrao. A family owned hotel at the top of Vidigal favela In Rio, Brazil. During my 3 weeks here I painted murals for the community free of charge and introduced the children of the community to the world of street art and spray painting. The goal is to open up a door or a possibility of creativity to the younger generations that otherwise might have been closed in their situation.

La Sierra Artist Residency
10 pages illustrated for a educational coloring book during my 3 weeks at La Sierra Artist Residency located on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. Each page illustrates what one can do to help the environment and appreciate the Earth we all inhabit. During my time in Colombia I saw first hand how the locals litter, capture wild birds, and burn trash without thinking twice. The purpose of this coloring book is to give out to the children of local villages to educate them to prevent future pollution of the area.
