I pulled into Lagos, Portugal with no plans and not many worries, but quickly found that every bed in every hostel in town was sold out. After a few hours of wandering door to door, I settled on sleeping on the beach, and sat down for a beer. As fate would have it, I met a woman who happened to own a hostel on the main drag, and after chatting for a bit, she told me she had an employee bed open, and I could have it for as long as I’d like in exchange for a mural, as well as unlimited happy hour sangria from the hostel bar.. She gave me complete artistic freedom, & I took the opportunity to incorporate the clocks already hanging for my first 3D mural. Painted in The Algarve, this one holds a special feeling in it.
