Marcus Murray is a Jamaican-American born in Omaha, Nebraska. He spent many summers in Denver before moving to the city after graduating high school. He has had a life-long love of art as a way to tell stories of resistance, history and mythology of peoples from across the globe. Marcus’ illustrations are inspired by these same pillars with a heavy dash of comics and hip hop. All of his illustrations, paintings, and murals are concocted with a narrative trying to claw its way out of his head. From the initial scribbling of lines to the slow burn of devising a color palette, the entire process is cathartic.⁣
