FOREST FOR THE TREES

by Rather Severe

Jon Stommel and Travis Czekalski met at the Columbus College of Art and Design and started working together on everything from murals and animation, to illustrating Holly Zanville’s award-winning series of Z House books. Now based in Portland, Oregon the two continue to combine their styles working as Rather Severe as they “inspire the community and enrich the experience of being in public spaces.” For Portland’s second annual Forest For The Trees Festival in 2014 the two created this colorful work at 3600 NE Sandy Blvd.  @rather_severe  @ffttnw​
