"Super fortunate to have the opportunity to work with @barcoaphx on this new mural. Special thanks to Tyda, Ryan, and Grant. Amazing people who care about Downtown Phoenix and have a lot creativity to give back and help others.

I was born in Mexico City and my family is from Michoacán. My uncles and grandparents were charros so you could say I was listening to a lot of Vicente Fernandez when around my family. I can always visually remember those fun family parties back in the day. Uncles drinking buena tequila, and telling stories. Carne asada cooking, my mom and aunts making salsa, and Chente playing in the background. Me and my cousins running around the pool. This mural is priceless in my ize, I will be forever grateful for this opportunity.

Hope you guys enjoy the new mural and take some fun picture memories with it!

Also hands down best Agaveria!

Mural is dedicated to my cousin whom passed away years ago and who’s hearts he’s touched.
