At the inaugural event in March , local, national, and international artists simultaneously created two new landmarks in downtown Austin. More than murals, Writing on the Walls is a week-long celebration of art, diversity and public spaces in our community. More than 2 5 other local artists also took part in Writing on the Walls events, which included panel discussions, workshops, a spray part y , public art demonstrations and documentary movie screenings.
Artists also visited local schools as part of the Artist in Schools program. The Foundation continued our Writing on the Walls series of collaborative public art installations and events in fall when local developer Manifold Real Estate and Hsu Architecture invited us to partner on four murals at their Bouldin Creek project. An internationally renowned street artist who has painted more than large-scale public murals.
As part of the city-funded Colony Park District Park improvement project, Austin artist Tyson Davis created this foot by foot mural of doves in flight to reflect the East Austin community's struggles in the past and hopes for the area's future.
For one of three murals commissioned by Hill Country Galleria, J Muzacz was inspired by the state's seasonal wildflowers and the colonies of Mexican bees that gave the community of Bee Cave its name to create this foot by foot mosaic mural of bluebonnets, Indian blanket, spiderwort, and purple coneflowers in full bloom with bees working a copper honeycomb.
For one of three murals commissioned by Hill Country Galleria, Helena Sue Martin painted a foot-tall golden-cheeked warbler with its head cocked and eye directed at the viewer, with a Texas-friendly "hi there" written in script beside its head. For one of three murals commissioned by Hill Country Galleria, Avery Orendorf of Avery O Design filled four panels with brightly colored wildflowers in a graphic illustration style against a light turquoise sky.
Hovering over the flowers in one panel is the titular bee, whose name is drawn from the children's book Skydancer: Adventures of a Monarch Butterfly by Tania DeGregorio.
