Summer Pulse
This mural was commissioned by TD bank for Toronto's TD Union Summer Festival. TD Union Summer is a two-month summer event with free daily live programming featuring films, music and great performances, right in the heart of the city.
Every year Union Summer partners with different Toronto mural artists to create a mural that will highlight their summer event.
In May 2023 I was asked to create a mural for this event that will aesthetically vibe with the festival's offerings (food, drinks, plants, music, art) and incorporate the colour palette of the event.
This vibrant mural represents many things that make us love Toronto - fun and energetic community, great food, and live music.
I used organic lines to represent summer energy and movement. My piece includes playful elements and a Union Station landmark (clock) with colors that pop and make you think of summer, friendship, and fun festival vibes.
“Summer Pulse” represents the way that I envision the energy and the gathering of Toronto's community under one roof, at Union Station.
My Mural Process
As a mural artist, my creative process is a blend of painting and planning. Before embarking on the execution of a mural, I go through a process of careful preparation to ensure a successful mural installation. The process of executing a mural is not without its' challenges, but these challenges excite me, and fuel my passion for being a mural artist in Toronto.
