Dreams start to take shape.
Opening Boiling Dragon at the beginning of Covid during lock-down was something else I tell you what.
My long time childhood friend J Muzacz drove down from Austin during the lockdown with a “essential workers pass” to knock out this BAD A$$ MURAL!!!
All done in 1 weekend!!!
Friday night sketches out the walls
Saturday all colors on
Sunday black color on for the details and left to go back to Austin by 3pm!
Impressive is an understatement!!!
He Co-founded The Mosaic Workshop an East Austin creative hub offering hands-on mosaic classes
He is one of the founders for
He had a couple murals done on the electric boxes around Houston years back with a city of Houston project. And works with the city of Austin with a lot of project out there as well
He published a book called Japan 365.
With a ballpoint pin and a notepad, he drew as an outsider the inspiration he saw everyday in Japan of the Japanese people before, during, and after the tsunami that hit Japan back in 2011.
Just recently he was featured in a mosaic art exhibition and gallery show the city of Austin put together. Each piece at the show was prices at 4k each!
J has soo many more accomplishments that will make this post way too long.
But I’ll tell you this. Growing up we used to call him “The Crazy White Boy” during summer in high school he would travel to Europe in the country side with only $100 and go door to door asking for work for room and board. He did that 2 summers in a row. They call that backpacking, I call that NOPE!
Now he is an establishment artist in the community and all over tx and pretty well known world wide, having lived in Japan, Australia, Egypt, and teaching English in South Korea.
Adventurist, Talented, Humble, Goofy
