The latest edition of RoadRUNNER Motorcycle, Touring, and Travel Magazine includes a cool article “Chasing the Golden Trout.”

It features my Wildfire mural in Petersburg, WV!

“You can find murals in almost every town. They’re always one of my favorite aspects of exploring.” 🎨

(Thank you James Carlisle for sharing this with me!)

Finished up Pendleton County’s America 250 Mural Project just in time for the 4th of July 🎨
📍 Franklin, WV

This project is a continuation of a mural I completed two years ago. The original mural was a painting of the Florentine Hotel and Fleming Restaurant, both of which were lost in the 1924 fire.
This time around, I highlighted the three regions of Pendleton County (South Branch, North Fork, and South Fork). Each region features a historic photo of the mills prevalent in that area (McCoy’s Mill, Bogg’s Mill, and Homan Mill). In the background, you will see Seneca Rocks and Eagle Rock. 🎨

Special thanks to the Pendleton County CVB, Pendleton County Commissioners, Seneca Rocks Development Authority, and West Virginia Dept. of Tourism for making this possible.
