Artist Profile:

Miranda “Nana” Villanueva is a muralist and a painter from Carson, CA. She writes:

The process of creating my large scale murals is making sure to embody the communities that surround me. I always want to make sure that the symbols and colors I use stand for something more than beauty. I’ve been painting for about 10 years, volunteering countless hours to my craft. The love that has grown in my work shows in every wall. I can say that the most rewarding thing about painting is really sharing my passion with each city and person that lives within it. At the end of the day I just want people to feel my love through paint, and maybe one day have the courage to follow their own dreams.

…I wanted this coffee to be earthy - resembles us, resembles me….
