One of the most fun walls I've painted yet! This is a Japan-meets-Colorado-hibachi-eatin'-Godzilla mural, also featuring the restaurant's beloved "Chef Boy" logo/mascot. This was my third mural for Miyabi Jr. (fast-casual Japanese hibachi) just south of Denver. Many delicious bowls of miso soup, hibachi chicken and yakisoba were enjoyed in the making of this mural. 
8' x 10'. ​Oishii!

Any day I get to paint a Godzilla mural is a good day!

...but wait, there's more!
Almost a year after I completed this Godzilla mural, the client calls me back for an update: they're rebranding the hibachi restaurant, and need to phase out the Chef Boy logo! Can I paint something in his place? I was already going to be in Denver for another mural gig, so I was able to schedule this mural cover up on a Saturday afternoon. I've never done something like this before, but I think it turned out seemlessly! (...and I like it even more now with Mothra!)

Here's the wall after I've painted Chef Boy completely out of the scene. I considered positioning Mothra directly over Chef Boy, but figured it'd be easier to start fresh. Matching the background colors with new paints wasn't as difficult as I imagined.

Here's Mothra! I was directed to paint her extra friendly. No children were to be frightened by the restaurant kaiju.

...she's asking "oishii?" (Tasty?)

I think the addition of Mothra really blends in just right. Even more colorful than before.

My 'most epic' wall to date!
