"Here’s a free driving tour of Denver’s murals, curated by street artist Sandra Fettingis
WHO: Patrick Kane McGregor, a Denver-based artist best known for his hyper-realistic depictions of animals; Anthony Garcia, a Denver native and muralist who also co-founded the artist collective Birdseed Collective; and Nack Andarm, a print artist and muralist now working out of Georgia.
WHERE: The intersection of Tremont Street and Park Avenue
Fettingis’ take: “I’ve really enjoyed this one for a while. First of all, collaborating with three people is not always an easy feat. And I feel like they were very, very successful in this collaboration, to marry all three styles.
“I think the composition is really great. You know, like, the fact that you don’t have to show the entire elephant on the left for it to be a strong image. And the contrast between the realism and the graphic patterning is really lovely. And then the pallet. The muted grays with the bold colors is really, really nice. And it’s almost as if those elephants are sort of emerging from the gray concrete. So in that sense, again, this is another example of a piece working really, really nicely with the environment.
“I assume it’s a mom and child, so I think that that’s a really sweet message. Especially in a residential neighborhood, which it’s situated in, that’s a sweet message to spread. Family care and love and taking care of one another.”" (from (
