Five years ago I asked Skylar to draw this mantra for me I was repeating over and over in my head during an especially difficult time in my life. Since then I’ve given out hundreds of copies of it, but never thought it would be a mural out in the world for the community.
…
My dear friend Alby made this happen and Skylar came back out to help make the mural since it was his original design. I’m so proud of the video and love shown since it was first created and hope it has meant something for everyone.

‘Why are Sunday’s so Depressing’ the mural landed on my birthday, on a Sunday, since I couldn’t have an actual dance party at my house during quarantine, I invited friends to dance for the video to share with the community.
…
Thank you Landon Hale for filming the amazing dance video, Skylar Chubak for the lettering and art, Alby Miller for making this possible and everyone for their dancing. Be Kind. Be Brave.

To celebrate the importance of glass recycling in the community, Salt Lake City and Momentum Recycling recently debuted a second dumpster which features a wrap-around mural of Utah winter sports hand-painted by local artist Josh Scheuerman and Dave Doman.
The piece brings a splash of public art to a frequently-used recycling location, trading the basic blue of the original dumpster for a bright mural paying tribute to Utah’s iconic natural beauty. “As a native Utahn, I feel responsible for the wild and natural places,” said Josh. “I believe it’s vitally important for new technology and information to help increase recycling alongside local art.”
Momentum Recycling is Salt Lake City’s contractor for its glass recycling program, and helped residents divert nearly 1,550 tons of glass from the landfill in 2019 alone. The company operates a local glass recycling facility located in Salt Lake City which processes tens of thousands of tons of glass jars, bottles, and other containers from across the region into various sizes of glass cullet that are used to make fiberglass insulation at a Utah facility, produce new glass containers, and are turned into many different products for other construction purposes.

New geo-thought pattern, created while painting to create a unique and original design. January 2021.

To celebrate the importance of glass recycling in the community, Salt Lake City and Momentum Recycling recently debuted a new dumpster at the Liberty Park drop-off location that features a wrap-around mural of Utah arches hand-painted by local artist Josh Scheuerman.
The piece brings a splash of public art to a frequently-used recycling location, trading the basic blue of the original dumpster for a bright mural paying tribute to Utah’s iconic natural landscapes. “As a native Utahn, I feel responsible for the wild and natural places,” said Josh. “I believe it’s vitally important for new technology and information to help increase recycling alongside local art.”

Recently completed mural on 900 south 900 east in Salt Lake City, UT. A neighborhood I frequented often as a teenager to seek out music and counterculture trends, which have continued till this day for the next generation.
YIN YANG KOI FISH
In feng shui, the koi is tied to the yin yang symbol. In fact, the black and white teardrops of the yin yang symbol are said to be representations of two koi, one male and one female. The eye of each teardrop is symbolic of the constant watchful eye of the koi. This pairing of fish is often seen outside the context of the yin yang symbol as well.
KOI HARMONY AND HAPPINESS
The koi is synonymous with harmony and happiness. The two yin and yang koi complete each other and create a perfect balance of the negative and positive energies of chi energy, which is the life-force of all things on earth.

Mixing Behr acrylic paint with Montana Cans to make this renaissance painting in the commons area of C9 Flats in Salt Lake City.

This interior mural was painted in the fashion of a renaissance fresco on bare concrete, utilizing the concrete and gallery lighting to showcase the mural, using six shades of paint to render the artwork.

I’ve completed four murals at C9 Flats in downtown Salt Lake City and currently working on another outside mural with an additional mural on the elevator shaft on the roof this coming spring, which will add some distinction to the skyline of Salt Lake City. Thank you C9 staff and operations for all of the support!

Utah’s natural beauty can get lost inside the urban environment, and I hope by representing Arches National Park within the city we can remember the beauty we are trying to protect. Roughly 12’x57′ and located on the south side of Signed & Numbered.

“Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. A civilization which destroys what little remains of the wild, the spar, the original, is cutting itself off from the origins and betraying the principles of the civilization itself.”
― Edward Abbey
“One of the great liabilities of history is that all too many people fail to remain awake through great periods of social change. Every society has its protectors of status quo and its fraternities of the indifferent who are notorious for sleeping through revolutions. Today, our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.
Salt Lake City’s latest urban mural — on 800 South across from Fisher Brewing Company — is a giant landscape of Bears Ears National Monument.
Artist Josh Scheuerman said he came up with the idea in February, shortly after the Outdoor Industry Association decided to leave Salt Lake City and take its massive, twice-yearly shows somewhere else, claiming the state was indifferent to the protection of public lands.
“I wanted to remind city dwellers that what happens in southern Utah is still tied to us” he said before the dedication. “Last year during the Standing Rock protests, I traveled to South Dakota to make an offering at a sacred mountain. I trusted it would lead me somewhere along the crooked path of life and eventually it led to this wall. I was anxious with fear, creating something from nothing, and that fear stayed with me as I painted. But now it’s so much different. The courage to help give voice to a movement that is happening and the policies which are being proposed, I feel strength. So today I remember everyone who stood and were brave even in the face of fear and continue to fight for the preservation of these and all other sacred lands. Thank you Everyone! #bekindbebrave”

In 2012, I lived in San Carlos de la Rapita for a summer and decided to paint a mural for the city I love. The first mural took a month with a lot of breaks and travels in between the start and completion. In 2016, I traveled back for 12 days and painted a total of 5 days and 1 full night to recreate the same mural with additional color with a roller, 2 1/2″ brush and patience. Thank you San Carlos, Rafa Baila, Lucas Samo, Evelyn Mayans, Gaby, Juan, Carlos, Christi and everyone else for the support and love. Go out and create beautiful things that are difficult, but inspire and you will have the ability to change the world.

I was able to paint this city mural thanks to the city of Sant Carles de la Rapita. A beautiful place to paint along very warm greetings and conversations with locals. Theme music from Amélie by Gaby.
