Harborview Terrace 3 at 530 West 55th Street, New York, NY Last week we had the honor of returning to Harborview Terrace and to paint another wall, this time at the recently finished playground. So much color and happiness in the housing project!!! Mural for The Public Housing Community Fund and the Harborview Terrace Tenants Association, with funding from The Lincoln Center, to revitalize Harborview Terrace Housing Complex in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan. Last November, right before Thanksgiving, we finished this large mural at the Amsterdam Houses in Manhattan. It is a Daycare run by the Hudson Guild in NYCHA property, and it was difficult to find because it is inside the projects and didn't have any distinctive marks. Now there is no way you can miss it, and the families and kids are much happier going there every day. This "Fairytale Fantasy" is up and running! You can see it at 260 E 64th St. NY, NY. This project was made thanks to the Lincoln Center, the Public Housing Community Fund, the Amsterdam Housing Tenants Association, volunteers, and my amazing crew, Valeria, Monica and Vanesa. I just finished a mural for Cricket Wireless in the South Bronx. Celebrating refranes for Hispanic Heritage month, it's been a real fun project to work on!! This year, I was really happy to take part in the 2025 Boone Ave Walls Festival. I created a Milky Way Teta on a gate, and I’m pleased with how it turned out! I love being able to paint in The Bronx about what matters to me <3 I was lucky enough to paint for the fourth time with @uptowngrandcentral at 124th and Lexington. As usual, I like my pieces to tell a story and to make people think. This one is about sharing. We are witnessing how a whole country is being erased by bombing and starving them to death. We need more compassion, more empathy, and more kindness in this world. We finalized the second part of the Harborview Terrace mural. Four new walls and retouches in the playground we painted in 2023. I added two Hop-Scotch games to add some fun to the park! I really appreciate the Public Housing Community Fund for trusting me with these projects! The Harborview community is truly amazing.  The mural has been completed, and it’s checking a new milestone in our community's vibrant art scene. You’re invited to see it in person at the intersection of Fordham Road and Creston Avenue in The Bronx. Feel free to take a selfie with the mural and tag me on social media so I can see your photos and share the love! Come by, enjoy the art, and be part of this exciting moment.

 Back in December I was in Spain and of course I wanted to work some magic there. This mural was something I really wanted to do for a while. It is located next to a protected area called La Marjal, where many species live, and it's being endangered because the authorities want to create a glamping where it shouldn't be.
