My work follows a quote from local KEXP VJ Gabe Teodros "If a tree can't grow there, I can't grow there" highlighting the struggle of what it means to grow in difficult spaces. My work often depicts nature and animals thriving in the manmade circumstances of their mural sites; industrial areas, urban landscapes, etc. Places where we might overlook the order of nature. I accomplish this by using color fluidly; selecting palettes from the area around me and playfully experimenting with shades, complimentary colors, and my favorite, neons! My figurative work lends itself to the imagination, for example how a wolf would appear in a fantastical technicolor dream. My goal is to always experiment and play with shapes and color, bringing the outside in.
With over 10+ years of experience, I am a Seattle-based Latine muralist, painter, educator, and illustrator. My passion lies in creating murals that bring life and meaning to the spaces they inhabit. Drawing inspiration from my upbringing as an Americanized Mexican Catholic in the Pacific Northwest, my work beautifully blends elements of graffiti, anime, folklore, and fairytales.
As an artist, I am deeply mindful of how art can positively impact the community. I cherish every opportunity to engage with the community and create vibrant and captivating murals that leave lasting impressions. My ultimate goal is to design safe and beautiful spaces for community members, fostering mindfulness and meaningful connections through my art installations.
One of the aspects I truly love is working with youth, challenging their brilliant minds to consider their roles in the rapid growth of our city. I believe that art has the power to shape perspectives and empower the next generation.
My journey into the world of art began with a pursuit in Graphic Design, but I soon realized that I wanted to create art that extended beyond the boundaries of a computer screen. After working over a decade with Art Primo, an online graffiti supply company, I transitioned from being a part-time artist to dedicating myself fully to mural work.
Driven by my passion, I founded House of the Wolves, named after my last name Villalobos. As a small business, I specialize in creating vibrant murals for a diverse range of clients, including Meta (formerly Facebook), The Seattle Seahawks, Climate Pledge Arena, and The Seattle Kraken.
