The final project of 2022 is complete! Here are a few captures from the @pacific_beacon roof deck and from ground level of the “Bravo Zulu” basketball court created for the @usnavy through @project_backboard . . . The mural depicts a ship cruising out to sea proudly displaying the Bravo Zulu nautical flags. Included are visuals of Point Loma, the Coronado Bridge, and a beautiful @sandiego sunset. It was an honor to work with the Pacific Beacon and Project Backboard teams. A huge thanks to everyone involved and a big hug to my Mama for flying out from Virginia to sling some paint! . .

QUARTYARD, SAN DIEGO

by Amandalynn

Home to a beer garden, dog run, food and coffee, and event space, @QuartyardSD at Market and 13th also increasingly serves as an art hub for San Diego's East Village. In addition to the more permanent works on walls around Quartyard other temporary installations can often be found and earlier in 2019 when music and art festival, @KAABOODelMar , held an event to announce their artist lineup for this year's festival, event art director Amandalynn captured the essence of the festivity with this stunner. Based in San Francisco, Amandalynn says she is inspired by the female form and spirit, and her work illustrates their strength with depictions of strong and seductive women.  @alynnpaint/

Sharing the stoke. Mural style. 🖌 It was super fun seeing this come to life one stage at a time. Best of all, I had a great time painting with @nalena_k . We were really feeling the heat on the 2nd day ☀️ (it went up to 90 degrees in San Diego!). But we pulled it off! The plants and color palette are my favorite parts. . More murals to come? We’ll see. My final note: I love our matching sage green hats! 😄 . #ladieswhopaint #sandiegosurf #sharethestoke #alohavibes #sandiegomurals (at Golden Hill, San Diego) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5EdP15ndHX/?igshid=dtuodwb0owcx

Repost from @jonnypucci • It’s been nearly two years since I first painted memorials to Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery on the boarded up Pekin House. At that time protests were breaking out all over the country (and the world) demanding accountability, justice, and acknowledgment that black lives do matter. It was an emotional time for me as it was for so many, and I was honored and humbled then as I am now by the outpouring of love and support from my community here in North Park, San Diego. This restoration was made possible with support from @unityrunners @runforbreonna @urbantrailrunnerssd @sdblgbtcoalition @rideforbreonna @northparkmainstreet and many others who got the word out and raised money to help me purchase materials. Also big thanks to @milanorthpark @sageceramics @amethystjesus and anyone who came by, talked with me, brought me coffee or said a kind word.

Ever caught sight of this mural while cruising the 5 by downtown San Diego? It’s by artist Kim MacConnel from 2003, titled “Reverse Commute” on the The Essex Apartment building. #KimMacConnel #SanDiegoMurals #SanDiego #Mural

"CO2 KILLS MERMAIDS"

by Lauren YS

Influenced by her Asian American heritage and a wide range of skills and experiences—academics, literature and writing, teaching, illustration, and animation—Los Angeles-based Lauren YoungSmith, aka Lauren YS, is inspired by dreams, symbolism, and mythology. Landing on the urban art scene Lauren creates "a misfit wonderland in which imaginary heroines can address the absurdities of reality"—work that @SeaWalls_ says "aims to bring a sense of vibrancy and wonder to every community she approaches." Participating in Sea Walls San Diego in 2016 at Upas and 30th streets, YS painted this message about the environmental toll of ocean acidification....and offered up further evidence of the existence of mermaids.  @squid.licker/

SEAWALLS SAN DIEGO

by N30

Influenced by cartoons, anime, architecture, and computer design, self-taught Mexico City artist Roberto Gutièrrez, aka N30, says he was experimenting with with drawing from a very young age. As a teen N30 began using graffiti to express himself on the street and today he says his work "is developed from compositional elements that are related in a geometric way to the abstract and the organic." In San Diego in 2016 as a guest artist for the @PangeaSeed Foundation's @SeaWalls_ Artists for Oceans Program N30 created this wall on Park Blvd. Sea Walls says the mural "addresses the importance of ocean exploration and discovery." @n30n3/
