Grayling Cunningham
I am an artist in many ways. I work in various mediums including oil paint, acrylic paint, and of course the works of art as a hairstylist in Lewiston, Maine. My own process in creating art is to challenge myself and step outside my own boundaries. I paint feelings but am very interested in adding more human form to my works. My paintings often represent the things affecting my own life and/or the world around me. I hope you enjoy taking a deeper look into my soul through the works that I create. I offer you to feel for yourself the experience of art in my life and hope that it nurtures your world as it does mine!
I think the value of public art is incredible. It inspires people in so many ways. I appreciate messages within art, and the loveliness of seeing it as you are just passing down the street, and the desire to get out of your car and take a closer look. It's all so awesome and creates a culture that has a creative mindset and adds so much to a community!

I would like to see a public Graffiti wall so we can find the amazing graffiti artists in this community and inspire them to have a space to show their work. I would love to see some of what philly is doing with prisoners and public art murals. I would also like to see some deeper content within the murals that make people question their own selves and actions, and yet celebrates the human experience.
