Mural
Large-scale commercial mural work executed for Mountain Sun Breweries, Denver CO over two years — a beloved independent brewery group known for its art-forward interiors. Murals include figurative composition above the tap wall and a large-scale koi pond piece, both executed in a richly layered, illustrative style with strong color and compositional confidence at architectural scale. Available for large-scale commission work across gestural abstraction, illustrative, and ocean-inspired visual language.
Wipeout Series — Bailey Silva, Kona, Hawaiʻi (2018–present)
An ongoing body of gestural abstract paintings rooted in the physical experience of surfing — specifically the disorientation of being held underwater during a wipeout. Working in bright, layered palettes across canvas and board, the series draws on Cubist philosophy to fragment and reconstruct the visual experience of water: light diffusion, turbulence, depth, and motion. The ocean isn't referenced — it's felt.

First Place, Transformative Forces: Creation through Destruction, Kahilu Theatre. Artist-at-Sea, Schmidt Ocean Institute R/V Falkor, Pacific Ocean Transit: Hawaiʻi to Fiji.
