“Community Garden” on Central & Whalley, New Haven CT

May/June 2022

Acrylic Exterior Paint on 315ft² concrete wall.

This mural, located on Central and Whalley in New Haven, CT, is a celebration of the natural world blooming in the neighborhood of Westville. Living in Westville, I was fascinated by the scope of its gardens and nature trails. The lush green spaces are a manifestation of the love and joy shown to them by the many residents who populate and care for their public parks and gardens.

Commissioned by the Westville Village Renaissance Alliance and the Connecticut Main Street organization.
