PROFESSIONAL FREELANCE ARTIST WITH A FOCUS ON MURALISM AND A PASSION FOR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
I am very excited for this year's festival and artwalk! I'm very interested in creating a mural for this year's Artwalk. I would love to create something relating to the healing power of water, geometry and numbers.

I've been drawing before I can remember. I am new at attempting to do freelance work, but looking forward to the challenge. My love is comic work through self expression caricature art.
I can sit and draw any image I see, better yet any image you want. Please take a look at my work, and allow me to put your story in place. ~calhoun jr.

Hi, I'm Mea. Art Hobbiest! I've been drawing since I was 12. I use many mediums, but my two favorite are chalk and face paint. I've been performing chalk art since 2011, where I first drew a princess, and since have chalk painted multiple mermaids, ballerinas, and silhouettes.

Mel's Abstract Painting
I never considered myself to be an artistic person, the ability to create some type of painting/artwork, was out of my comfort zone. However, in 2019 someone dared my intellectual inability to paint. I wanted to challenge myself, to prove that we could do anything if we challenge ourselves.
I started painting with acrylic paint mediums in 2021, and I experimented with paint pouring using an acrylic paint medium, acrylic paint pouring is a fluid painting technique used to create art by pouring acrylic paint onto a canvas; it is a method of painting incorporating unconventional painting supplies for those inexperienced individuals/artists of all skills and ages can explore and enjoy.
I enjoyed every minute of creating abstract paintings with unique designs. In 2022, I started using a wide range of tools using acrylic and oil-based paint mediums. I realize not every artwork is the same, and not everyone is going to like a specific art/painting, art challenges an individual’s interpretation and perception of an artwork. ‘Art is beautiful that can be seen as an expression of a person’s creativity, skills, and imagination, creating art is a gift that can be shared with people who enjoy and appreciate several types of abstract art.
I consider myself an amateur artist,
I was dared to challenge myself and it was one of the best things I have done for myself, proving that we can accomplish and/or do anything we set our minds to.

Hi, my name is Lexi Stalcup, and I am a self-taught artist. I've always had a creative mind and have loved anything to do with art since I was little. Once I reached high school, I decided to take it on as a career. Making art has always been extremely important and therapeutic to me, because I feel like I can not only escape reality, but manipulate it and create a world of my own. I like to make my pieces vibrant, positive, and colorful as possible. I'm 18 now and just recently moved to Vegas, so I'm starting fresh with my career. Each piece has a meaning personal to me, and I also like to incorporate my spiritual beliefs into each piece for healing symbolism. But my goal is to someday master several mediums, share my imagination and give others the same positive feeling art has always given me.

“My love for design and art would be a mixture of tattoo art and street art. ... I like old, traditional tattoos, Sailor Jerry, Ed Hardy, stuff like that,” says Lopez, who spent a week weaving such aesthetics into a seashell spiral referencing Fibonacci’s number sequence. He figured it was too simple to win. But a week before graduation, it did. “I checked my email late at night, and then I couldn’t sleep ’cause I was so happy.”

Hello my name is Cle Calhoun Jr and I am a digital artist. I have been drawing since the age of 10. It started from my love of Saturday morning cartoons and the simpsons, I said to myself I want to draw that so I picked up a pencil and paper and begin drawing. From there I created my own original characters which I call Calhoun City. Most are based off friends family and neighbors I grew up with as a child. I love to create, the challenge of getting the shading down and detail. My artwork is posted on Facebook under the page Calhoun City Art also on instagram under Calhoun_city. Thank you and I look forward to contributing to the upcoming mural.
