The Dream Monster

Hi everyone! I decided to take a photo of the Dream Monster by El Paso artist Jam! (Matthew Martinez) this afternoon. Since it’s such a warm day today, I took a walk during lunch. The mural was created this past weekend for the annual Chalk the Block art festival. Jam! owns Dream Chasers Club, an art gallery/clothing line in Downtown El Paso. His company’s motto is “chase dreams, not money.”

Jam! said the dream monster was created with spray and latex paint. Jam! added “It is (the dream monster) a reminder for everyone to chase their dreams. Think of him as someone that is always with you, to push you to that extra mile. He is there to support you.”

The Dream Monster will be on display for about another week and a half outside of the El Paso Museum of Art.

Hello everyone! My name is Lisa Amaya. I'm a 30 some year old mom to one son. My blog is about my life, entertainment, current events, people and events in my hometown, El Paso, Texas, etc. My blog will also feature pieces about Ciudad Juarez, Mexico and surrounding areas in New Mexico. I also hope to include more travel blog posts. Guest bloggers will also contribute from time to time! I've been a writer since I was 6 years old. I graduated from New Mexico State University with a degree in journalism. I've written for various newspapers and magazines. I plan on focusing more of my time on blogging and freelance writing. I took a five-year break from writing but I'm back at it! Thank you for stopping by and welcome!
