There is perhaps nothing so satisfying as collaborating with other artists to create public art to beautify and inspire a populace. When working on a mural, artists become a different being together and a painting is created that none would have or could have made alone.
Beneath the surface of every mural, therefore, lies a universal truth that speaks to the creative power and beauty generated by our interconnection.
I am overjoyed at being able to paint as part of an artist collaborative playfully dubbed, “The Smockettes”, comprised of myself, Stella Greendeer, and Natalia Hinahara.
We are available for commission in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and the greater Midwest region. To start a conversation, reach out to me at: annaalena@gmail.com
