As we near the end of the year I love reflecting on the projects I accomplished. Talk about a dream project - pairing with the Racine Zoo was an amazing opportunity to shed some light on a few of the phenomenal animals that call the zoo their home ❤️ If you haven't seen my handiwork there yet please visit terribletews.com/murals 🦧
