POKE CITY
Poke City is a poke restaurant with locations in Cambridge and Government Center. I was commissioned to do murals in both locations after I had worked there serving food for some time. I worked on this one in Government Center for about two weeks and completed it before the restaurant was officially opened.
I knew people would be eating right in front of the painting so I wanted the colors to be rich and the details to pop. I was thinking about how the mural would be a part of their experience.
This mural shown below was done in the Cambridge location. This site was open for some time before I was commissioned, so I worked after hours between 9:30pm and 3:00am. This mural was much larger so I went with more graphical shapes of color that could be recognized easier at this scale. Thanks to the scale and limits regarding working hours, this project took just over a month to complete.
Allston Village Main Streets
Allston Village Main Streets works to develop a thriving commercial district by assisting neighborhood businesses and promoting the physical and cultural vitality of Allston Village. I have done a couple murals with the program and they are great to work with.
This scene was created for Doc Wayne, a non-profit therapy office in Allston. They requested something that showcased inclusivity and peacefulness.
Red City Fitness is a gym down the street from Harvard ave. and Commonwealth. This was my first mural done outdoors.
