A few weeks ago, a client and friend of mine (Todd Walsh, owner of Market Real Estate here in Boulder, CO) reached out, wanting to do something big to uplift and unite our community.

Todd sent over pictures of the wall he wanted covered with my artwork, and together we decided on the phrase, We Are All In This Together.

I sent him the following two sketches. The first idea was purely type driven. The second sketch was more conceptual, with several different buildings/houses and a banner winding around the buildings, sharing our message of togetherness even though we are apart.

Todd gave me the freedom to follow my own artistic vision (best client ever), and here is the end result.

Using a vibrant color palette (to uplift and inspire hope), I wanted to include several people doing what we're all doing while staying home (reading, online learning, comforting one another through our collective uncertainty). The plants represent our growth, and the butterflies our evolution. My favorite part is the children literally climbing the walls as they play (as the mother of two elementary school aged children, I can really relate to this one).

Here are a few shots of the installation process as well.

This was one of the most meaningful and exciting projects I have ever had the opportunity to work on. Thank you so much to Todd and Market Real Estate for having the overall vision to make this happen. We truly are all in this together.
