In October 2007 I worked with volunteers to create murals for North Tamarind Elementary School in Fontana as a part of United Way's Hands On Inland Empire Day. The murals depict cougars (the school's mascot) in one of their natural habitats, the mountains. These mountains in the mural were inspired by the San Bernardino range, which is visible from the school. I sketched the murals and mixed the colors in advance, and then I supervised the painting. It was a lot of fun, and everyone was amazed to see what they had a part in creating.
Redlands Market Night
This mural was commissioned by the Downtown Redlands Business Association. The idea was to illustrate Redlands's weekly Thursday farmer's market, yet with a vintage 1950' or 60's look.

Since Market Night wasn't started until the 80's, I created a scene of my own. I researched images of State Street from the 60's, and used friends and family as models for the characters in the mural.
It is located off Sixth Street between Redlands Blvd. and State Street on the back of the Blesch & Assoc. Realty office in downtown Redlands.
