We had a great time painting the mural in the cover photo, it’s the Largest mural in New Jersey as well. All love to Mona Caron & the rest of the All You Need crew, very happy I had the opportunity to spend a month & a half swinging in the sky painting & making unforgettable memories with my best friends 🤙✌️

Hi! I have been working as a landscape architect for over forty years. And it's delicious, when something really new comes along and we fall in love with it.
CONGRATULATIONS for this work, as strong and vigorous as the weeds themselves! You gained another fan and promoter, here in Brazil...
