Mural for the West Colfax Mural Fest “The Golden Road”
August 2016/ Lakewood, CO
The mural depicts the west part of Colfax Avenue, America’s longest street. It was once called “The golden road” because it connected Denver and Golden. It displays many features of West Colfax avenue and symbols of Colorado.

I couldn’t forget the Colorado Potato Beetle, another symbol of Colorado for any ex-soviet person
