Springtime, 13th and Pine
I love the pixelated effects. Shapes of color help blend the colors from afar, but make the painting easier.
"The concept is very simple...extend the flowering trees that are on either side of the wall across the wall." DQ
The process:
Before...initial design...after.

Gimme Shelter, 1236 Lombard, on the side of the Morris Animal Refuse.
"A big backyard, with all these pets waiting for you to come home" DQ
All the pets are real people's pets, with names, the artist came to know.

Crystal Snowscape, 10th and Bainbridge
"I wanted to create the relationship of the surrounding neighborhood with mural...something that would resonate with the neighbors." DQ
The artist says he is the skier in the center, moving toward the light of his art and a bright future of a mural artist.

Autumn, 9th and Bainbridge (now gone), built over after a long community fight to save it.
"The feeling of hikes in the fall...completely out of my imagination." The residents loved the trees in the city where trees are scarce.
