His most recent murals have been painted not directly on client walls, but rather on 1/4 inch plywood panels which can be painted in his studio and then swiftly mounted to the client walls in their home or business. This gives flexibility to the artwork/scheduling and also makes for big impact, and should client needs change or houses sell, the artwork is readily able to be dismantled and transported with ease. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1574460262599-NQBSVL1H1AN0WB00IGWD/IMG_0739.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1574460266031-APRH5I6CFPU1244S51W5/unnamed.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1574460300728-Z3CTW7M7R4YK9XW3W39M/IMG_1122.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1574460358443-FW171EW33ZZZHMO79RDP/IMG_0737+copy.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1621352909437-XCCKS86RVNY960GO43XU/0430211301a%7E2.jpeg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1527527156148-HDPIQFS0PQFAFHIUWBEU/sml_livecanvas+copy.png Gallery - Live Canvas Ben also offers a unique service to nonprofit agencies that are looking to add a uniquely kinetic buzz to their annual fundraising auction efforts! For a flat $750 fee, Ben Mann shows up with a Northwest themed canvas in progress, which he completes during the event while he engages easily with event patrons. But wait! There's more! The winning bidder on said canvas will actually be incorporated into the existing design! Nonprofit agencies pay Mann a flat $600 fee and invariably such canvases auction off for well over that fee. Please inquire with Ben for further information and calendar availability. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1522891635956-NRXJJU5HMBUPCUZV96WT/Yellow+House.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1522803152056-7C86W7I4G1U09SIX9UJ7/IMG_6705.JPG Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1522891706679-UACVEKLNILEU7J2H9X1A/Student_art_01.png Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1527527175859-AGO5PS9P36ICN8IDPOY5/Ben%27s_hands+copy.png Gallery - Gift Certificates A fun and personal gift idea!

Depicting and impacting the local landscape is my ongoing quest. Likewise, Bellingham Alive —now celebrating its 15th anniversary—seeks to spotlight the best and brightest in our beloved region.

For yours truly, in a word: Surreal. & enlightening, humbling, hilarious, frustrating, ultimately a poignant curve in my road of artistry. ((Imagine being asked to walk like someone else. You walk like you, and have done so for ages, so it's easier said than done. And the frickn tools...not since the late '80s in college have I handled a palette knife. My analogy would be handing a waffle iron to an accomplished sushi specialist..it presents a steep learning curve, side effects may include profanity)) But even 25 years since his passing into the great teal beyond, I could feel the famously gentle encouragement of Mr. Ross, who I deemed the Mr. Rogers of creativity. At the end of the risk and struggle, it was a lovely day in the neighborhood. #artistlife WATCH THE TIME LAPSE HERE! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1527535264512-1VIM8LNEIYN7S94WCMNF/18Spring07+copy.png Wet Paint - Bellingham NORTHSHORE VETERINARY 601 - D Electric Avenue https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1527535289832-7T9LCBXZR9IJ4F4J7Z54/Ben+Mann+June+2017-106.jpg Wet Paint - Fairhaven A LOT OF FLOWERS 1011 Harris Avenue DRIZZLE 1208 11th Street GARDEN ROOM FAIRHAVEN 1006 Harris Ave GOOD EARTH POTTERY 1000 Harris Avenue MAMBO ITALIANO 1303 12th Street BEN'S PRIVATE ART STUDIO (hours by appointment) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1527535307386-FZ51MSZXAOEWWYQKWSYR/18Spring01+copy.png Wet Paint - Mount Vernon RISTRETTO COFFEE LOUNGE & WINE BAR 416 S 1st Street https://www.ben-mann.com/resume daily 0.75 2025-05-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac0364575f9ee7f29f07347/1527535765831-SM1VVEHRVKS7D6V3Q16P/Ben+Mann+June+2017-108.jpg Resume - Publications Bellingham Alive!
