Meet our 2024 Muralist: Rick Perry

Rick Perry is a local Olympia artist, cartoonist, educator, and longtime resident of Olympia. He has contributed to two past Olympia Artspace Alliance Storefronts installations. His cartoon selfie wall was painted in the parking lot on the corner of Washington and State street this past fall. From his application:

“My immediate thought was a bunch of tremendous cartoon animals playing instruments, as they do. The reality, though, is that I will happily change my vision and design to suit the space and the desire of the building's residents. Mice riding a giant seagull over the moon? Sure! A dragon drinking coffee with aliens amidst sentient mushrooms? Why not! Happy trees living it up? Let's do it!”
