    Almost a year later, the organization that helped me get this incredible gig ( - a woman owned nonprofit) is struggling to stay afloat due to COVID-19. Donate whatever amount you can at to help fund local art and artists!

    We did it, folks. This is what 31 hours of work looks like, not counting stencil prep. I can’t believe this is real. Feels good to create such a giant piece for hometown tbh!!! See for yourself at 3rd & Santa Clara Street in downtown San Jose!
