My offering for the WeldWalls Mural Festival 2025! The theme is “The New West: Myths & Monsters”, so I depicted the myth of Raven Stealing the Sun. ☀️

The pop-up art show and sale of this 8x8 painting and many others will be happening at Weldworks Brewing this Friday night (9/19)! It’s part of the Mural Festival in downtown Greeley running through the weekend. Hope to see you there!
