Mural @ Mountainview Brewing Co.

This week I’ve had the privilege of adding a mural onto the walls of Mountainview Brewing Co. in Hope B.C. ! This is a very fun project because Hope is where I grew up, and to paint the mountains that surround it is super special. I’ve designed it to be in a grayscale format to match their black, white, and red aesthetic! They’ve also been very kind to let me put up a couple paintings for sale on their Merch shelf by the door: my new series titled “Wonder: Moments of Eternity”.

I wanted to work on a new series of paintings with people in them; an exaggerated perspective to make the mountains feel larger than life, those moments where we gain perspective on how small we are in the world, and the moments of stillness when we can’t look away. A deeper look into why I love mountains and how I feel when I paint them.

“To see a World in a Grain of Sand

And Heaven in a Wild Flower,

Hold infinity in the palm of your hand

And Eternity in an hour”

-William Blake

Come by the brewery to check out the mural in progress (starting a second wall soon! Crazy right?!) and the three paintings up for sale by the front door!

Spring

My world

left open in pieces,

falling into your open hands.

When all I want is control,

predictability, an answer,

I find a few things that are greater.

Some trust, perseverance, patience,

a love that grows in the silent whispers

of the space between.

Flowers grow and the snow begins to melt,

the sidewalk dries and the trees kiss

the tops of our heads with water:

a beautiful distraction.
