Meet the muralist behind some of the iconic art that decorates San Diego. He's inspired by his rich culture and makes up half of the duo Ground Floor Murals.
With the shake of a can and push of a button, Paul Jimenez creates magic in lifelike murals. Every image has at least 40 colors of spray paint and not one brush touches the artwork.. On Thursday, the first day of Hispanic Heritage Month, he and his partner Signe Ditona were painting a mural for the Chula Vista Animal Care Facility.It all started with a mural of Tony Gwynn, painted on a gym in City Heights at the height of the pandemic.
"For me, one of the greatest things is being tagged by our fans, by our supporters, and it’s always the image in front of the whole family that’s in front of the mural... the image of the kids that are looking up at it, because I remember being the little kid and being that mural and being so inspired," he said.
And his people are always close by. His Nana Paola Chavez happened to stop by with his aunt while he was painting on Thursday. Chavez beamed when she saw him and they embraced.Paul Jimenez proudly stands next to his nana Paola Chavez in front of a mural he is painting in Chula Vista on Sep. 15, 2022
