MURALS
i approach murals as just really big canvases but done similarly; often whimsy and done without a projector, just a mock up for concept and spatial planning and off i go. if this is wrong, then i don’t want to be right [because it’s fun this way].
PROJECTS:
“EMBRACE THE CHAOS”
2026
as a continuation from the mural shown below, this one holds a story of embracing chaos even while we’re in the thick of it.
the client has always liked the uncool series and all that it stands for, so the colours and words were largely inspired by that. to make the mural on the other half of the room [below] feel cohesive with this one, i selected colours intentionally.
“F*CK IT, I’LL TRY”
2025
a mural for motivation; two walls painted in a personal home gym as a way to transform a gloomy and much uninspiring space into a space that is more uplifting and welcoming.

the reason behind the words:
“i/you got this” may be a good, encouraging message for the gym [or life] but this can set us up for disappointment if [and inevitably when] we fail.
since most rarely win at anything on their first try, this disappointment leads to self doubt, which makes it harder to keep going. the more times we fail, the harder it is try again.
so, instead of saying “i/you got this” i prefer to say “f*ck it, i’ll try.” with less expectations, there is less fear to fail. with less fear, we will be more willing to try again and again which will ultimately lead to more wins.
also, progress often happens little by little… but if you’re consistent, eventually a little becomes a lot.
