Flaming Monkey Flying Circus

Hey now!

Flaming Monkey Flying Circus proposes interactive art exhibit for Chattanooga "I've never seen anything like this before. Ever. Maybe in dreams."

Kevin moved to Chattanooga in 1995. He had flirted with a career in art a few times (bought it drinks, took it out on Valentine’s Day, etc.) but was never quite able to commit to it.
In 2011, all of that changed. Married with a newborn, Kevin decided (for some crazy reason) that this was the perfect time to attempt another launch of his art career. One afternoon while his infant son was sleeping, Kevin snuck out to the shed to look for art supplies. What he found instead was plywood, house paint and one inch brushes.
Understandably, his first paintings were quite large. This is probably how he jumped so quickly to murals. Since then, his works have appeared everywhere from the Southside, MLK Blvd, the North Shore, Highland Park and venues such as Track 29. If it’s a painting of a large face on a building, it’s probably his.
Kevin has recently finished a memorial mural for the Fallen Five. It is the newest addition to The McCallie Walls Mural Project, a neighborhood beautification and paying-artists-a-living-wage-for-their-work project that he also curates. Lately, he has sent fan mail to Chuck Close and painted a mural commissioned by Usher.
He is a founding member of the Flaming Monkey Flying Circus.
