Street Artist Ouizi

By Ouizi (Louise Jones) at 1914 W Chicago Ave in Chicago, USA in 2019. “Flowers for West Town” features a red admiral butterfly, daisies, a peony, Apple blossoms, Japanese camellia, cosmos, and a ladybug. Photo by Victoria and jp calubaquib.

Artist Ouizi’s technique makes it appear as if the sky-high flowers in “West Town in Bloom” are blooming right off the wall.



0uizi (2019): My first mural of Spring went up this month in West Town, Chicago! Thank you to West Town Bakery for your hospitality and West Town Chicago for trusting my vision! Thank you Sara Chicago Truborn for making everything happen so smoothly and for being such a pillar for artists in Chicago and beyond! Much love to all of the nice folks who came by and said hello and gave me words of encouragement and praise, and to all of you that came to the ribbon cutting, my art is your art!



Ouizi came back to add some more flowers in summer 2021:
