About this mural:

This piece means a lot to me. A sort of culmination of things I’ve painted throughout the almost decade I’ve been in Austin. A semi-self-portrait. And to be involved in a project that gives to the Austin art community, perfect. When ATX DAO approached me to work with them on starting an art program/fund, I was so excited to jump on board. My goal going into this project, is to make sure that artists that participate, are paid properly, given creative freedom and ownership. I feel this will be a great addition to the art community and culture. As we know, murals can have an impermanence to them. With the digital space of Web3, I think this is a way to preserve the art, give value to projects, and contribute to the creator economy. This piece has been turned into an NFT, a portion of the sales of which go towards paying the next artist to paint a mural in Austin. As the city grows and grows, the arts maintain and feed the beauty and culture.
