Art

We try and have a lot of street art and public art around our house. We are lucky to have a house that has space to put up murals and do some strange fun things.

Garage door

On the back of our garage we have this amazing Shawnimals mural:

##Wheat paste

We have a wheatpaste wall on the side of our garage. Turns out concrete blocks are not great for wheatpaste to stick on. We are going back to the drawing board. Here is version one:

Super fun private commission installed today with @tmoneydelarue! Work by myself, @tmoneydelarue @glasscuisine and @_pennypinch_. Have a couple more to put up this week, but very close to being done. ••• #wheatpaste #art #wheatpasteart #chicago #artcommission #streetart #streetartchicago #streetarteverywhere

Today @shawnimals and @tmoneydelarue came over and put up some wheat paste arts.
