INVADERS MURAL
You can find this large patriotic mural on the side of the Catalano building in west scranton. The mural honors Matt McGloin, A local player that went on to play for Penn State, the NFL, and even the XFL. When I sat down with the owner of Catalano to discuss the mural design he specifically requested that I portray Matt in the mural. He recounted how Matt used to eat hoagies from Catalano's before his high school football games. In the mural Matt is depicted wearing his high school uniform, number and team name.
The mural was commissioned and paid for by NeighborWorks of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The design used was chosen from a pool of three, all designed by myself. The final design was chosen via a community wide vote, after hundreds of votes were tallied this design won by a landslide.
