Mt. Rainier & Dandelions

Dandelions on Mount Rainier
Acrylic mural painted for the Hill House (hillhousemural.com) project in May 2020 in North Capitol Hill, Seattle. Artists are invited to create a work of art on the side of a 15 ft long cinderblock garage to be viewed for 3 months, before the next artist comes in. 

I was inspired by dandelions that had started blooming everywhere and all their fascinating, varied shapes, as well as the alpine landscapes of the Cascade mountains. 

I was determined to use up leftover paint before buying new, so the color scheme was chosen based on what the owners had sitting around in their garage. I only bought one bucket for this project (green).
