This mural was created for the 1st Avenue Trail in Council Bluffs, Iowa expanding on a painting from my studio titled Cotton Candy Man.
The work centers on an everyday figure, inspired by local street vendors and the presence of people who shape the rhythm of a community.
Rendered in my painterly style, the mural carries the softness and vibrancy of pink and blue, holding both familiarity and atmosphere.
It reflects a quiet recognition of the individuals often seen but not always acknowledged.
