In order to prepare for this event, Balcones Resources contacted Nathan Nordstrom, a well-known Austin urban artist. Nathan will serve as a consultant for the competition.

Nathan began painting in 1990, and his works and exhibits include teaching "Graffiti as Art" through the City of Austin, The Austin City Hall art show, The Austin Musuem of Art (AMOA), and The Arthouse. Most recently he co-curated and participated in a traveling exhibit of Texas graffiti artists called “Pieced Together” which was held at the Lombardi Gallery in Austin. In addition to Texas, this exhibition toured Los Angeles, New York City, Phoenix and San Francisco. Images from Pieced Together can be seen here: flickr.com/piecedtogether09
