. “The mural on Jones Street features Sheena, the first female character to be the title-star of a comic book back in the 1940s. Sheena is on top of a zebra galloping off with the phrase, ‘On that 2AM Taco Run Like….’ I painted her blue because blue represents the sadness she’s feeling for the tacos,”
“Growing up, I read comic books and the super heroes were larger than life to me. They inspired me and helped me get through shit. By me painting and comic books on the walls literally makes them larger than life as well figuratively for kids and the youth. And it’s a way to relate to people because they think it’s fun.”
