Collaborations with Other Artists: A Summer of Creative Adventures


This summer has been an absolute blast, filled with creative collaborations and new experiences that have enriched my journey as an artist. Painting is often a solitary endeavor, so it’s been a wonderful treat to work alongside other talented artists, sharing ideas, techniques, and inspiration.


Kicking Off with a “Mural Meet Up”


The summer began with a bang in June when I attended a “Mural Meet Up” with muralists from all over the United States, and even a few international artists. This event was a whirlwind of creativity. We gathered to paint a mural along the front side of a paint and decor business. The mural featured balloons and drips of paint that transitioned through the colors of the rainbow, creating a vibrant, eye-catching display.


Working with over 20 artists on this project was nothing short of magical. The mural came together incredibly fast, with each artist contributing their unique touch. Watching it develop so quickly was exhilarating, and the sense of camaraderie and shared passion made the experience truly unforgettable.


Collaborating with Samantha and Andrea


The rest of the summer has been just as exciting working with my artist friends, Samantha and Andrea. 


One of our first projects was painting logos on corrugated metal. This was a unique challenge, as the textured surface required us to adapt our techniques and think outside the box. The end result was striking, and the client was thrilled with the outcome.


Next, we painted a cheerful, sunny field for a children’s play area at a safe shelter. This project was particularly meaningful, as we knew our work would bring joy and comfort to children in need. The bright, happy scene we created felt like a small way to contribute to the healing and happiness of these young ones.


Our final collaboration of the summer was at a resort, where we painted a logo and an outdoor scene. This project was memorable not just for the art we created, but for the conditions we worked under—it was extremely hot! Thankfully, the resort graciously offered us the chance to cool off in their nearby pool during breaks, which made the whole experience fun and refreshing. 


Looking Ahead


Working with other artists has not only enhanced my skills but also reminded me of the joy and inspiration that comes from shared experiences. I’m looking forward to more painting adventures and collaborations in the future, and I’m excited to see where these creative partnerships will take me next.
