Doug Shelton moved to Tucson in 1993, but his art has left a mark around the world: He has murals at Tokyo Disney, across his home state of Iowa, along the east coast and even in the U.S. Capitol. His paintings are packed with humor, some pop images and color, and have a story to tell. The longer you look at his work, the more the stories shift, change and reveal. Shelton, too, still frames art for others at Lewis.
