1800 Market St. San Francisco, CA For this mural we started with the Progressive Pride Flag because to us it represents the amazing diversity within the Queer community. We wanted to showcase “heroes” from the past and present who we feel should be celebrated in the LGBTQ+ community as well as the intersection with our Latino Heritage. We hope that this mural invokes love and curiosity for our past, a connection to our present, and inspire a diverse future for the LGBTQ+ movement.   Collaboration with Simon Malvaez  

940 Grove St, San Francisco CA In 2019 I was the winner of a local art contest and was commissioned to paint San Francisco’s newest “Painted Lady,” a large mural on iconic Alamo Square.

493 Sanchez St. San Francisco, CA Inspiration was drawn from political propaganda from the 1940s and the political climate of the current times (2017). We wanted to make a very political statement.

It is also a tribute to the creator of the rainbow flag, Gilbert Baker (R.I.P. 2017), and to all who fought for LGBTQI rights throughout history.
