Public art is for everyone, everywhere… big and small.
Tiny Cameron in Calhoun County, population 372 per the 2022 census, has a new mural.
Visual artist Patro Ulmer recently completed a 40-ft. by 15-ft. mural depicting the town’s bent toward agriculture and the military.
Patro “Pero” Ulmer is a modern artist from Orangeburg. His journey as a creator began at a young age with an early appreciation for art in his daily walk. Today, he creates three different art techniques; including abstract expressionism, graffiti and realism. His favorite kind of artwork to create is expressionism because he gets to play with colors. Patro relies heavily on his emotions for inspiration, which determines what he is going to paint and what technique he plans to use.
