Artist working in this style emphasize outlines and flat areas of color. What is important is the feeling of flatness. Our culture in SoFlo doesn't have 3-D," anymore instead we have the compression of genres which is shown through the pop-inflected work.
Kaleidoscope on the Square is a 330 ft fence installation project that brings together the diverse community that makes up the north end of the city of West Palm Beach, FL .

Our 'revolution', is to change the paradigm of what is considered art in this community. Beauty comes in many different forms and uses endless mediums. Our goal is to eradicate the misconception that 'street art' is bad by exposing new viewers to the varied gifted artists that this city envelops. It is this combined dynamic that caused us to choose the name 'Street Art Revolution'.Our mission is to give them both a platform and an audience.
The program invites one or two local artists per season (fall,
winter, spring, and summer) according to wall availability. In partnership with West Palm Beach DDA, and other
community stakeholders, each mural project integrates programming with
other artistic disciplines (such as
poetry, music, theater, and fashion).

My work initially starts from visual research, looking primarily at photographs of appropriate subjects which I manipulate into my own language. Color is a very important component to my work and that color palette is inspired by the Huichol Indian’s technique of alternating strong and soft colors to achieve the effects of complementary opposition and to create dynamic balance.

Quilts are the democratic fusions of the distinguished heritage of painting, the new emerging field of digital art and the domestic practice of quilting.
