Public Art
Public art has the unique ability to transform ordinary spaces into moments of connection, inspiration, and shared meaning. I have been fortunate to contribute to public art projects across Colorado that reflect and celebrate local communities.
40 West ArtLine Story Totems
Eleven story totems each containing a hidden dinosaur serve both as lights and to engage people in visual discovery along the 40 West Arts District’s ArtLine. As visitors explore, each totem also furthers the story of the 40 West ArtLine by echoing a motif in the artwork at that location or incorporating a theme derived from the area or history of that area. Each dinosaur is integrated into the totem in a unique way - peeping in, or very small, or just a foot or tail, or low at a child’s height, or formed from the positive/negative interplay of shapes. The first totem along the ArtLine begins with hatching dinosaurs and the last concludes with a dinosaur skeleton.
Traffic Box Artwork
I have designed traffic box wraps for multiple Colorado cities, including Greeley, Centennial, Lakewood, Englewood, and Brighton. These public-facing installations use bold, engaging imagery to transform everyday infrastructure into moments of connection and visual interest.
I see traffic box art as an opportunity to reflect community values, explore themes of transformation, and, at times, simply bring a sense of play and delight to the urban landscape.
Lakewood Rail Boxes
Drawing on historical and place-based references, I created artwork for four relay boxes along Denver’s W Line. At the flagship Wadsworth Station, mosaic-inspired designs echo the geometry of the station’s awning—featuring the Denver skyline on the east-facing box and mountain imagery on the west-facing box.
Another relay box, located on the former site of an apple orchard, uses a playful paint-dab style and dramatic shifts in scale to reference the area’s agricultural past while reflecting the vibrant, contemporary arts community along the 40 West corridor.
Created for two bus shelters in Superior, Colorado, these artworks celebrate the community’s outdoor culture and transportation history.One shelter highlights Superior’s recreational landscape through dynamic vignettes of hiking, biking, fishing, and horseback riding, set against rolling grasslands that echo the surrounding terrain. Subtle trailhead details invite viewers to explore the area firsthand. The second shelter tells the story of the historic Kite Route—an interurban passenger rail service that connected Superior to Denver from 1908–1926. Developed in collaboration with the Superior Historic Committee and the Colorado Railroad Museum, the artwork incorporates historic imagery, reimagined with color and energy, to bring the town’s past into the everyday experience of the present.
