ABOUT THE ARTIST: Crystal Vielula (https://www.crystalvielula.com/) is a San Francisco based queer artist and art educator. She illustrated a children’s book called A More Graceful Shaboom, which was published in 2020. Vielula has been involved as a muralist with Clarion Alley Mural Project for over decade and her illustrations are wrapped on public trashcans throughout the city. In 2019 she was selected as a Muni artist and recently her work has been profiled in the San Francisco Chronicle, on KQED Arts, Broke Ass Stewart and in The Fight Magazine. She had a reoccurring column on the Bold Italic featuring interviews and illustrated portraits of interesting people in San Francisco called Drawn from the City, and she is the creator of 5 self-published coloring books. She works with a variety of mediums including but not limited to collage, paint, pen and ink, acrylic, textiles, sculpture and ceramics.
For this project Crystal was inspired by the bold resilience of California Poppies that erupt out of the ground every year to make all of ours springs a bit brighter.
