Murals infused with heart.
DreamBox Art Community Murals
A community mural with DreamBox Art is a collaborative paint-by-number experience where your group helps bring the artwork to life. Participants assist with the installation, and afterward the mural is refined to professional standards by me and my team.
Community-driven mural work is at the heart of what I do. Guiding people in discovering their creativity through painting fosters connection, pride, and a shared sense of accomplishment. From mentoring emerging artists through the mural process, to hosting an international mural retreat that produced two large-scale installations with nine participants, to completing a 900-sq-ft community mural for GPEC here in Phoenix, I bring both experience and genuine passion to every collaborative project.
Let me help you bring meaningful color and connection to your walls and your community.
Together, we can create something truly inspiring.
Collaboration with GPEC and Valley Partnership
DreamBox Art partnered with the Greater Phoenix Economic Council to support The Valley Partnership’s 38-year tradition of transforming local campuses through volunteer power. For this project, more than 200 volunteers came together to revitalize the ACCEL campus, a special-needs facility in west Phoenix. About 50 of those volunteers joined us for a guided community mural installation, where we painted imagery that reflects the heart of the school and the mission behind GPEC’s initiative.
This collaboration brought new life to the campus, brightened the surrounding neighborhood, and now stands as a vibrant symbol of care and community spirit.
Paint the World With Me: Creative Retreats With Heart
DreamBox Art is now hosting artistic heartfelt adventures. Refresh your inspiration. Fill your soul. Learn from culture. Feel good giving back. Watch for our next journey posting in 2026
Immersive cultural experiences, education, and inspiration are at the heart of my travels. As a lifelong nomad and passionate artist, I’ve fused my two deepest callings—art and exploration—into immersive mural retreats designed for creatives like you.
These journeys are more than just travel. They’re about creating meaningful art that leaves a lasting impact, often in collaboration with nonprofits to bring murals to life in communities around the globe. During my first large-scale international mural project, something profound shifted in me. I knew I had to share that feeling—the connection, the purpose, the spark—with others.
Watch for the next chance to join a transformative mural adventure. You’ll gain hands-on experience, sharpen your skills (or learn new ones), and forge deep bonds with fellow creatives. More than that, you’ll see culture through a lens only accessible to those who create within it.
Whether you're a seasoned artist, art enthusiast or a creative soul, DreamBox Art journeys are crafted to meet you where you are, and take you even further.
Transformative Tulum 2025: We Painted Rainbows in Paradise
Tulum, Mexico is my happy place—rich in spirit, creativity, and personal transformation. It’s a destination that has profoundly influenced my own artistic journey, and for my first retreat, I invited others to experience that same shift. Nine brave participants traveled to Mexico to bring joy and color to a Child Protective Services–supported home for children navigating difficult family circumstances.
Together, we transformed their space, poured our hearts into the mural work, and left forever changed. What began as an act of service became a healing, uplifting experience for the participants, the children, and the walls we touched.
We stayed in a private Moroccan-style riad nestled in the Tulum jungle. Each participant enjoyed a unique suite surrounded by lush grounds, a private pool, and a rooftop for quiet reflection. Breakfast and transfers were included, along with group outings like a cenote swim and shared dinners that deepened our connection.
Our mural days were filled with flow, laughter, and meaningful moments spent painting alongside the kids. There was something unmistakably magical about creating art in the jungle—lives were touched in ways that are hard to put into words. I left with a full heart and an even clearer sense that this work must continue.
Stay tuned for the next DreamBox Journey. We’d love to guide you into a deeper creative space where transformation, connection, and purpose come to life.
