The former CNN Center in Atlanta is rich in history. It has seen breaking news, championship celebrations, concerts, and crowds pouring in for games and events. Now it has a new name and a new future as The CTR ATL.

BEAUTIFUL CONCRETE.

New floral mural by artist John Tindel at Broadstone Junction in Norcross, GA. It took about three weeks because of all the rain, but I love how this mural turned out. My knees were shaking at the top but I pulled off my first gridded hand-drawn large-scale painting on a 5 story parking garage.
