Dry heat, wet paint: The mural at the new Matt's Big Breakfast

Three years ago, we decided to adorn our front gate with more than 8,000 bottlecaps to serve as the sign for the studio...and we decided to do it during the middle of the summer. It was hot, but the result was awesome and we had a great time doing it.

This past week, we took on another outdoor project, this one just down the street — and during what's been the hottest week of the year. The Kitchen Sink Studios team created a new mural on the north wall of the new location for Matt's Big Breakfast, downtown Phoenix's landmark diner. 

The timing meant that, well, it was hot. But it was also very fun and rewarding. Take a look at the process photos to see how it all came together, and look for it in person when the new Matt's opens in the coming weeks!
