Better a Big Face Than a Big Head
Kevin Bate lives and works in Chattanooga and is known in the area for his very large paintings and murals; his works have appeared throughout Chattanooga and the region. If it’s a painting of a large face on a building, it’s probably one of his. His “Fallen Five” 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 been branching out further into the Southeast and recently painted a mural commissioned by Usher. Be on the lookout for a new mural in Dalton in the new year!
