The Color of Music Mural

Tue, 30 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0700

Note: MT Robison & The Messengers will be at the festival Sunday about 2PM for photos.

RIVERSIDE, CA- Riverside resident and mural artist Linda Shrader, will paint a Larger Than Life Mural exhibition at the Indian Wells Arts Festival scheduled for Easter Weekend, April 2, 3, & 4, 2010 at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden in Indian Wells, CA.

The 10 X 32 foot mural, titled The Color Of Music, is a featured exhibition at the festival, painted start-to-finish during the 3-day festival. Three artists, Echo and Piper Robison, and Gabriella Evaro will assist Shrader.

“The mural project is a favorite of Festival attendees,” says Dianne Funk, festival producer. “People enjoy watching the large work in progress, and having their questions answered.”

Shrader is an advocate of art-in-schools and public art programs, as well as promoting art and culture as an economic engine. Her murals embellish buildings, community centers, and many schools in Southern CA.

“My inspiration for this mural is the colorful Southern rock and dirty slide-guitar blues of MT Robison & The Messengers,” says Shrader, “When I listen to MT’s songs, the stories take me places… I see images andI tried to capture some of those images in my mural.”

MT Robison, and his band, The Messengers are also Riverside residents. They recently signed a recording contract and are currently recording their second album titled Grace, due to be released early 2011, followed by touring. MT Robison will be headlining a show at Mission Tobacco Lounge, downtown Riverside, Apr. 3, 2010.

Angel MT Robison Oil Painting

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700

Internationally recognized artist Alexandra-G unveils “Angel MT Robison,” her newest painting in a series of earth-bound Angels.

London based, Alexandra-G, gifted artist and former runway model (still gorgeous!) and MT Robison, talented musician and songwriter, with a Hillbilly-Urban sound from the USA, are an unlikely pair to say the least.

But magic happened when the two strangers from across the pond were featured together on the popular website, Artists Exposed.

Alexandra took notice of MT's rugged but charming looks and then fell in love with his music. She contacted his manager for permission and photos to use as references for her painting.

When MT visited her website to see her work, he too fell in love and was "blown away" and honored that Alexandra-G was inspired to paint him as an "earth Angel."

High-quality prints of the stunning and almost life-size full-length oil painting of MT can be purchased on her website.
