about
El Federico’s Bob Dylan was created using stencils

created many notable music portraits around
Austin. His desire to put art on the streets and
bars is to help break the mindset held by most
people that art is only found in museums.

about
Le Bonheur de Vivre was executed by Doug Jacques and his
students at ACC in 1998. Jacques’ piece is a very colorful,
slightly surreal viewing experience for all who pass by. With
depictions of fl oating coffee cups and pigs playing the violin
among its fanciful imagery, it has infi ltrated the subconscious
sleep of the student body.

the violet sunsets that prompted the
