520 Mural Spotlight: The Feminine Foundation

This month’s mural spotlight looks at the painting on the ground floor of the stairwell. Muralist Matt Halm explains to us how a special woman in his life inspired this painting. 

The main feature of the bottom two floors of the 520 Lofts mural is this dynamic face. The pop art influence is seen in the style of this section, resulting in a modern poster-girl image. This figure is the inviting introduction to the mural (and the building), welcoming visitors who’d like to explore the rest of the mural. The inspiration and reference for this face is Matt Halm’s beautiful wife, and this painting was part of his marriage proposal. It doesn’t get much more romantic than that!
