Art vs Artist 2022. A selection of my work/opportunities for my existing work from this past year. I'm so proud of what I was able to accomplish, it was definitely the year of public art and my most successful year as a small business owner/artist. A lot of murals and art installations around the Fraser Valley as well as being flown to the unveiling of the mural I designed for New Orleans. I had my first solo exhibition and painted my largest work to date. I created a lot of designs for Indigenous-focused campaigns this year, partnering with many businesses. It is incredible to have the opportunity to use my artwork to make a difference. I feel very blessed to be able to make a living being creative and for all the opportunities that I've had. I am also thankful for the holidays as I'm currently on the butt end of art fatigue/burnout and I've pulled back a little bit from social media to keep my mental health in check. In transparency, it isn't always sunshine and roses and I think it's important to share that. I'm very excited about what the new year will bring. New murals and projects are being planned and I'm currently working on a personal piece that I'm very excited to share, it is a goal of mine to create more personal art in the coming year. In 2023 I will be relaunching my online shop so keep your eye out for that. I am so thankful to everyone who supports my work, from the companies I've been blessed to work with to the individuals who commission me or purchase my prints to those that like and share my work with others. It means the world. Happy New Year to ya'll, see you next year!

I recently watched the Blue Eyed Samurai series on Netflix and absolutely had to go and paint a tribute piece to the epicness of this show down a local skatepark.

New Mural for Orem City Center Park

I’m thrilled to share this 3-sided, 9-foot mural I created for Orem City Center Park! The mural is my celebration of our community and its many cultures—our individual colors rich and vibrant, and playing off each other. One person’s smile becomes another’s hairline, as we are united in our differences and varieties. (You might also spot a UFO or two!) The mural is beside the track on the south…

Charlotte's Mural Marvel: Natasha May Platt's Creative Exploration

Witness Natasha May Platt's artistic evolution as her mural project in Charlotte, North Carolina unfolds. With seven years of experience painting floral murals across the US, Natasha redefined success by channeling her energy into projects aligned with personal goals.

In this particular endeavor, she boldly embraced minimalism, deviating from her intricate designs, and navigated the challenges of covering vast square footage within a tight timeframe.

Natasha's adaptability and growth were evident as she transformed an irregular surface using innovative techniques like rollers and house paint, resulting in a graphic mural with large floral elements and negative space.

Completing the mural on time and receiving a warm reception from the Charlotte community marked a significant milestone in Natasha's career. This captivating journey not only celebrates her artistic prowess but also draws parallels between her strategic approach to mural art and the calculated moves often required in various creative endeavors.

Here's to Natasha May Platt and the promise of more awe-inspiring murals in the South! Natasha Share's her incredible journey in completion of her Charlotte's mural in her blog, Read to know more

This is a collaborative piece between myself and @mirv1 on the back entrance to the building that houses the Chilliwack Economic Partners Corporation, @downtownchwk and the Chamber & Community Futures. The images for the doors are my designs, they were installed by @kineticsignschwk, and then Kyle Mirva came in with some waves to compliment my work, he killed it! Thank you to CEPCO, @goufv/@ufv_international, @stolo.community.futures, and @chilliwackartscouncil for sponsoring this project through the @chilliwackmuralfestival. Thank you @ajaxmalone for being so supportive of my work and for spearheading this collab! The second image is the door on the left-hand side :)
