Welcome to Downtown Mural
30’x16’ facade mural completed for the City of Panama City, in collaboration with the Bay Arts Alliance, in January 2024.

When the City of Panama City acquired this building and decided to turn it into a breezeway, they knew it would need a prominent wayfinding element so people can easily spot the way back to their cars. That’s where I entered the picture!
We explored a few different compositions and lettering options for their desired phrase of “Welcome to Downtown”, and landed on this super-saturated, beveled type. It’s always a treat when clients go with my secret “favorite child” of the design options I present, and that was definitely the case here!
Many thanks to Jayson Kretzer, Gray Dodge, and Josh Shaw with Sunbelt Rentals for their assistance in coordinating the project and sourcing equipment for this installation!
