Martin Luther King Jr. - Portland, OR - Murals by Shane Grammer Arts` in Los Angeles

Martin Luther King Jr. - Portland, OR - Murals

During a time of civil unrest amidst the backdrop of the Covid pandemic outbreak in early 2020, a friend of Shane’s who lives and owns a business, Stahl Firepits, a fabrication shop, in Portland Oregon reached out to Shane with to commission a dramatic black and white portrait of the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His heart was to foster a sense of cross-cultural unity within the community of nearby locally-owned and run shops and businesses. As Shane worked diligently in acrylic and spray paints on the sixteen-foot wide by fourteen-foot high mural, a classic, iconic assortment of hipster-type Portlandiers sporting beanies, big beards and tattoos approached Shane and personally let him know how much it meant to them to have such a grand, iconic representation of a man who passionately and peacefully sought unity in a time of civil unrest in his own day.
