About Zuzu

Zuzu is a contemporary mixed-media artist and muralist recognized for vibrant color design and positive messaging. At an early age, she learned the importance of being business-minded, creative, and fiercely motivated to follow her dreams.

She found herself painting her first piece in the streets in 2008, stemming from her fascination with graffiti culture in the early 2000’s. A few years later, she completed her studies at the creative advertising program at University of Texas at Austin in 2010. She continued spray painting after she graduated, and further explored her passion for digital art and creative direction. Since then, she has combined her love of art, business, and design, working with brands like American Express, Rolling Stone, Coca-Cola, Neiman Marcus, SXSW, Budweiser, Facebook, Red Bull, Fender, and W Hotels.

Zuzu was named ‘Austin’s Best Muralist’ by the Austin Chronicle in 2021,  2022, and 2023.
