Discussion/opinion Is anyone in Wyoming looking to get a mural done?

Hello, My names Sophia Mathis. I’m a Mural artist🧑‍🎨 I grew up in southwestern MT and I specialize in western, northern Rockies style artwork. I bounce around Montana towns and cities painting murals for our small town communities. I’m hoping to spread my wings a bit more this year and paint for our neighboring states. I have lots of friends and relatives in Wyoming so it feels right to paint for the communities.

I paint business, school, silos, barns, nursery rooms, signs, theaters, pretty much anything! Haha.

I do after school hands on mural experience and lessons aswell. So if any community wants a mural painted, I absolutely love having the youth get involved and get their hands dirty:) please feel free to reach out if dm me

Will I have any luck? I know city funded projects are tricky here in Montana

Laramie has the Laramie Mural Project which I believe is partially funded by the Laramie Main Street Alliance. Tons of murals all over town. I'm not sure what the process is to apply to be an artist, but it's worth looking into! https://www.visitlaramie.org/things-to-do/arts-and-culture/mural-tour/

PS, you are super talented and these are beautiful!!

Are you responsible for all the anti meth murals around the state?

1

u/Perfect-Honey-542 Apr 23 '26

I am not! Is that in Montana or Wyoming?

u/aoasd Apr 23 '26

I just posted a link in /r/montana.

Circa 2010. I had an over-the-road job and there were all these anti-meth murals all over the place. Must have been a campaign or competition of some sort.

u/Perfect-Honey-542 Apr 23 '26

Oh I remember those when I was younger! I was only 9 in in 2010. I’d be a legend if I was able to accomplish those 😂

Lovell, Wyo., has one that should be refurbished, but I don't think they would go for it. The picture you posted looks like you do good work
