So honored to hear Gotham and Beyond” won People’s Choice award for the CodaAwards!!!! Couldn’t have done it without @juliejilekart @artistdiaz @jessicabarndpaints @_artbear_ @shaneandersonart @utonyaschalkart @crtart Here are a few more picks of the space. #Repost @codaworx with @get_repost. Photo by @nklokphoto ・・・ Congratulations to 2018 CODAawards People’s Choice winner @shawn.arts! “Gotham and Beyond” is a 5000 sq foot vaulted dome mural created for Minnesota's Largest Candy Store @minnesotaslargestcandystore . In creating this domed space, the client wanted to create a destination and location that would be a perfect fit for the 12 life-sized superhero statues that were bought for their store. The goal was to take this blank white canvas and create something that was inviting and a provided a "wow" factor when people came into the candy store. http://codaworx.com/codaawards (at Minnesota's Largest Candy Store) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnTsbtHlhEi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=344bsxgp6tlg

Today’s the launch of one of my most ambitious mural projects to date!!!! Here’s a panoramic shot of the 5000 sq feet of a barrel vaulted dome at the worlds largest candy store! “Beyond Gotham” was created to be an experience within Minnesota’s Largest Candy store and houses almost a dozen life sized super hero’s. Over the course of 7 weeks, I and a team of 7 other artists from 6 states created and painted this epic mural! Pictures don’t do it justice, but @nklokphoto did one amazing job capturing it!!!! Full info on mural soon, but here’s the first look ;) #muralart #art #mnart #mnpublicart #publicart #mural #shawnmccann #shawnmccannart #ceilingart #ceilingmural #epicart #hugeart #benjaminmooreaura #benjaminmoore #dc #dcsuperheroes #marvel #marvelsuperheroes #artsmn #minnesotamurals #muralsmn #minnesota #exploreminnesota

“Pan Cakes”. Nothing more fun than peeling paint out of the paint pans at the end of a project! They end up being works of art themselves! #art #arteverywhere #artistsoninstagram #artmaterials #peeling #peelingpaint

Guess it’s only fitting the bed of my truck has become a canvas as well. #artoops #artspill #lifeofanartist #artistslife

So the tape creature known formerly as Marge (second picture) has morphed a bit on this mural project. We now know where all the paint can lids have gone! So far this mural has used approx 150 rolls of blue painters tape. Wish we would have kept all the other tape remnants as well! Lol. #painterstaperunamok #painterstape #acepainterstape #bluepainterstape #tapeart #arteverywhere #artistsoninstagram #muralproject #muralmaterial #artmaterials

So love using tape to paint buildings! Ha. Only 200 to go. Lol #acepainterstape #painterstape #mural #muralart #muralartist #art #artistsoninstagram #benjaminmoore #benjaminmooreaura #artist
