"ELPIS, SPIRIT OF HOPE"

by Brian Wooden

After completing his studies at Savannah College of Art and Design Brian Wooden says he was drawn to Nashville by the music, but has now called the city home for a decade. "Deeply influenced by pop and street art," Alive Magazine describes Wooden's work as merging "punk spirit with clean, cartoonish lines and cotton-candy colors." In 2004 The American Cancer Society added to its Hope Lodge program with a new 41 guest room facility on Charlotte Ave in Nashville. Last year Wooden brought new attention to the facility with this colorful depiction of Elpis, the spirit of hope from Greek mythology.
